Summary

This study looks at why some people with asthma don't get better with standard inhaled medications. Researchers will use MRI and CT scans to see if blocked or narrowed airways prevent the medicine from reaching the right spots in the lungs. The goal is to understand if these structural problems make inhaled drugs less effective, while oral drugs might still work. About 242 adults with asthma will take part.
