Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) provide important quantitative information about lung
function and can be used to elucidate pathologic conditions responsible for respiratory …

Computed tomography (CT) plays a pivotal role in the assessment of lung pathology. It has
been the mainstay of pulmonary diagnosis for many years, and several factors are at the …

Advances in computed tomographic (CT) imaging of the lung in the past decade, particularly
with increased speed, resolution, gating capability, and rapidly expanding volumetric image …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: The study's aim is to establish lung-imaging methods that
provide for the ability to image the lung under dynamic non–breath hold conditions while …

We designed and generated pulmonary imaging biomarker pipelines to facilitate high-
throughput research and point-of-care use in patients with chronic lung disease. Image …

The use of imaging technologies has progressed beyond the depiction of anatomic
abnormalities to providing non-invasive regional structure and functional information in …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Most lung disease is inhomogeneously distributed but
diagnosed by global spirometry. Regional lung function might allow for earlier diagnosis …

Lung disease is a leading cause of mortality in the United States. 2, 69 Chronic lung disease
encompasses a spectrum of diffuse lung diseases including emphysema, chronic bronchitis …

Describes investigating structure-function relationships in lung disease with high-resolution
