    Asthma is a chronic disease of airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness due to smooth muscle hyperreactivity, complicated by exacerbations leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Despite major advances in pharmacotherapy, therapeutic options for the smooth muscle are lacking and many patients remain uncontrolled.1 Bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is a nonpharmacologic treatment of severe asthma in which thermal energy is applied to the airway walls to decrease smooth muscle mass and the effects of airway hyperreactivity.
