The repeatability of computed tomography lung volume measurements: Comparisons in healthy subjects, patients with obstructive lung disease, and patients with restrictive lung disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
In this study, we examined the repeatability of computed tomography (CT) lung volume measurements in healthy individuals and patients with obstructive and restrictive lung diseases. To do this, we retrospectively enrolled 200 healthy individuals (group 1)

Supine posture changes lung volumes and increases ventilation heterogeneity in cystic fibrosis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Lung Clearance Index (LCI) is recognised as an early marker of cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. The effect of posture on LCI however is important when considering longitudinal measurements from infancy and when comparing LCI to imaging studies.35 ...

Evaluation of Quantitative Computed Tomography Indices in Patients with Pneumonia and Acute Respiratory Failure in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between quantitative indices derived from computed tomography (CT) attenuation histograms and disease prognosis in patients with pneumonia and acute respiratory failure.

Serum methylarginines and spirometry-measured lung function in older adults [PDF]

, 2013
Rationale: Methylarginines are endogenous nitric oxide synthase inhibitors that have been implicated in animal models of lung disease but have not previously been examined for their association with spirometric measures of lung function in humans ...

Intra- and Inter-Reader Variations in Lung Nodule Measurements: Influences of Nodule Size, Location, and Observers

Diagnostics, 2022
(1) Background: Accurate measurement of lung-nodule size is necessary, but whether a three-dimensional volume measurement is better or more reliable than the one-dimensional method is still unclear.

Measurement of lung volumes by plethysmography [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 1997
There are various ways of measuring absolute lung volume. These range from measurements derived from chest radiographs to the more common laboratory measurements employing either gas dilution or plethysmography. The principal difference between the latter two methods is that gas dilution techniques measure gas that is in free communication with the ...
