This study will use several digital technologies and scanning processes to help understand what happens when someone breathes to help develop new treatments for dysfunctional breathing.

People who struggle to breathe are often treated with simple breathing exercises. This project is looking to develop a new system using high-tech visual and audio feedback to guide patients through a personalised process of learning the correct muscular control for their breathing.

It is being carried out by a team of researchers based at the University of Salford.
