The role of CT scanning in multidimensional phenotyping of COPD.
- Abstract:
-
BACKGROUND: COPD is a heterogeneous disease characterized by airflow obstruction and diagnosed by lung function. CT imaging is emerging as an important, noninvasive tool in phenotyping COPD. However, the use of CT imaging in defining the disease heterogeneity above lung function is not fully known.
