1. st Phase In this phase the jet nebulizer was connected to the branch end of the Acapella according to manufacturer's recommendations.

   The volunteer did the radio-aerosol inhalation to obtain images of the lung fields scintigraphy static during the period of 300 seconds using an array of at 256x256x16 incidence later, as that encompasses most incidence of lung volume.

2. nd Phase The experimental procedure of this phase was similar to the 1st stage, but what differed was it made an adjustment by placing a pipe "T" between the mouthpiece and the device Acapella so that the aerosol would be inhaled not pass through the device.

Stage 3 This stage was considered phase control since the aerosol inhalation was performed through the mouthpiece connected directly to the nebulizer as is routinely used in clinical practice as illustrated. The procedure of this phase followed the same protocol of previous phases.

For analysis of lung deposition of radio-aerosol in the different lung areas were delineated regions of interest (ROIs), one for each lung, called the right posterior and left posterior. To analyze this deposition, the lung was divided into regions: upper, middle and bottom, and peripheral, central and intermediate.

The procedure was performed with the nose occluded by a nose clip and spirometric data were considered the PFE,FVC and FEV1. We used the protocol of Pereira 3 maneuvers being conducted with an interval between the measurements of one minute. According to the American Thoracic Society, as a criterion for inclusion was considering a variation of less than 0.2 L between the tests and is considered the best of three values.
