Quantitative validation of the severity of emphysema by multi-detector CT
Objectives: To determine whether MDCT reflects the severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) compared to the pulmonary function tests (PFTs). Patients and methods: A prospective study included 63 COPD patients. Spirometry was done and included forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), f...
