Association of Respiratory Functional Indices and Smoking with Pleural Movement and Mean Lung Density Assessed Using Four-Dimensional Dynamic-Ventilation Computed Tomography in Smokers and Patients with COPD

PURPOSE: To correlate the ratio of the non-dependent to dependent aspects of the maximal pleural movement vector (MPMV(ND/D)) and gravity-oriented collapse ratio (GCR(ND/D)), and the mean lung field density (MLD) obtained using four-dimensional (4D) dynamic-ventilation computed tomography (DVCT) wit...
