PCDF Centers
Access to high-quality diagnostic and treatment for all individuals with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a primary goal of the PCD Foundation. As we continue to learn more about PCD and develop better standards for identifying affected individuals and treating the consequences of inherited ciliary dysfunction, we plan to grow our network of centers with PCD expertise.

PCDF Accredited EM Diagnostic Centers
Affiliate Centers
Affiliate Centers are very similar to PCDF Centers from a treatment standpoint, however, these institutions do not use all diagnostic tools specific to PCD, namely nasal nitric oxide (nNO) testing. Consequently, a comprehensive diagnostic workup cannot be conducted at these sites.
