Summary

This study aims to better understand exercise-induced vocal cord dysfunction, a condition where the vocal cords close during exercise, making it hard to breathe. Researchers will use a small wearable device on the neck and MRI scans to measure breathing patterns and vocal cord movement in 120 physically active people aged 18-26. The goal is to improve diagnosis and management of this condition.
