Scientific ReportsA weak correlation between diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) and emphysema has been reported. This study investigated whether impaired DLCO in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with increased risk of acute

Interpretation of HRCT Scans in the Diagnosis of IPF: Improving Communication Between Pulmonologists and Radiologists. [PDF]
, 2018 Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD). In this review, we describe the central role of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in the diagnosis of IPF and discuss how communication between ...

Diagnostic test interpretation and referral delay in patients with interstitial lung disease. [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND:Diagnostic delays are common in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). A substantial percentage of patients experience a diagnostic delay in the primary care setting, but the factors underpinning this observation remain unclear.

The effect of aging and cardiorespiratory fitness on the lung diffusing capacity response to exercise in healthy humans [PDF]
, 2017 Aging is associated with deterioration in the structure and function of the pulmonary circulation. We characterized the lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO), alveolar-capillary membrane conductance (Dm(CO)), and pulmonary-capillary blood ...
