Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a channelopathy caused by mutations in the gene encoding the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Diagnosis of CF has long relied on a combination of clinical (including gastrointestinal and/or respiratory) symptoms and elevated sweat chloride concentration. After cloning of the CFTR gene in 1989, genetic analysis progressively became an important aspect of diagnosis. Although combination of sweat test and genetic analysis have simplified the diagnosis of CF in most cases, difficu
