Lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) is a treatment for end-stage lung disease caused by emphysema. Emphysema is a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that causes shortness of breath ...
Elastic parametric response mapping (ePRM), a CT-based severity scoring system for regional lung volumes, can monitor COPD progression.
Diaphragm position on neonatal bedside chest radiograph appeared to be a poor surrogate for aerated lung volume and expansion, with a weak correlation to CT scan calculations. Bedside chest radiograph ...
