Relationships between pulmonary function test parameters and quantitative computed tomography measurements of emphysema in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Objective CT is able to precisely define the pathological process in COPD. There are a number of previous articles discussing the distribution of emphysema and its connection with pulmonary function tests. However, the results obtained by the researchers are not identical. Purpose To assess relationships between emphysema and pulmonary function test parameters in COPD patients. Materials an...
متن کاملQuantitative Computed Tomography of Pulmonary Emphysema and Ventricular Function in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients with Pulmonary Hypertension
OBJECTIVE This study strived to evaluate the relationship between degree of pulmonary emphysema and cardiac ventricular function in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) using electrocardiographic-gated multidetector computed tomography (CT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Lung transplantation candidates with the diagnosis of COPD and PH were chosen for...
متن کاملHigh Resolution Computed Tomography and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a preventable and treatable respiratory disease with some significant extrapulmonary effects that may contribute to the severity in individual patients. Its pulmonary components are characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. COPD is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The economic and social burdens due to ...
متن کاملAutomated Quantitative Computed Tomography Versus Visual Computed Tomography Scoring in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Validation Against Pulmonary Function.
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to determine whether a novel computed tomography (CT) postprocessing software technique (CALIPER) is superior to visual CT scoring as judged by functional correlations in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 283 consecutive patients with IPF had CT parenchymal patterns evaluated quantitatively with CALIPER and by visual scoring...
متن کامل[Multidetector computed tomography assessment of cardiac comorbidity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].
Cardiac comorbidity is one of the most important prognostic factors in lung disease, especially in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The imaging techniques available for the study of this systemic manifestation concomitant with COPD include heart catheterization, transthoracic echocardiography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) represents a sig...
