Damien has improved. They have let him off Oxygen while he is awake. Back on when he is sleeping. Dr Radford has said she wants to wait till he is a little bigger then there gonna put him in a enclosed case I guess. She said she wants to look at hes lung.X rays are fuzzy. I wonder what this test is? Anyone know what shes talking about?

The enclosed case might be describing an infant PFT. They sedate the baby and enclose him in a clear box while they do PFT testing.
They can get FEV.5 (half a second, instead of 1 sec.) and other important values.

My daughter also had a chest CT done. This was also under sedation and gives a much clearer picture of what is going on than a normal X-ray.
