Multidetector row computed tomography (MDCT) is increasingly taking a central role in
identifying subphenotypes within chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma …

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous disease that is
characterized by chronic airflow limitation. Unraveling of this heterogeneity is challenging …

Background The value of quantitative CT (QCT) to identify chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD) phenotypes is increasingly appreciated. The authors hypothesised that …

Quantitative analysis of thin-section CT of the chest has a growing role in the clinical
evaluation and management of diffuse lung diseases. This heterogeneous group includes …

With advances in multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT), it is now possible to
image the lung in 10 s or less and accurately extract the lungs, lobes, and airway tree to the …

Pulmonary x‐ray computed tomographic (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
research and development has been motivated, in part, by the quest to subphenotype …

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by the presence of airflow
limitation that is caused by a combination of small airway remodeling and emphysema …

Lung imaging is increasingly being used to diagnose, quantify, and phenotype chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although spirometry is the gold standard for the …

The purpose of this review article is to review the process of developing optimal computed
tomography (CT) protocols for quantitative lung CT (QCT). In this review, we discuss the …

Rationale and Objectives The longitudinal relationship between regional air trapping and
emphysema remains unexplored. We have sought to demonstrate the utility of parametric …
