Extracting lung function-correlated information from CT-encoded static textures [PDF]
The inherent characteristics of lung tissues, which are independent of breathing manoeuvre, may provide fundamental information on lung function. This paper attempted to study function-correlated lung textures and their spatial distribution from CT.

Rationale and ObjectivesComputed tomography (CT) lung nodule assessment is routinely performed and appears very promising for lung cancer screening. However, the radiation exposure through time remains a concern.

Air Trapping and the Risk of COPD Exacerbation: Analysis From Prospective KOCOSS Cohort
Background and AimsAir trapping is a predictive index for a decline in lung function and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the role of air trapping in COPD exacerbation has rarely been studied.

The volumes assessed by optoelectronic plethysmography (OEP) and based on a three-compartmental model provide an accurate breath-by-breath index of expiratory and inspiratory (ribcage muscles and diaphragm) muscle length.

Respiratory Function in Healthy Taiwanese Infants: Tidal Breathing Analysis, Passive Mechanics, and Tidal Forced Expiration. [PDF]
Although infant lung function (ILF) testing is widely practiced in developed Western countries it is not typically performed in Eastern countries, and lung measurements are scarce for Asian infants.

Grouping Similar Seismocardiographic Signals Using Respiratory Information [PDF]
Seismocardiography (SCG) offers a potential non-invasive method for cardiac monitoring. Quantification of the effects of different physiological conditions on SCG can lead to enhanced understanding of SCG genesis, and may explain how some cardiac pathologies may affect SCG morphology.
