Functional morphometry: non-invasive estimation of the alveolar surface area in extremely preterm infants

BACKGROUND: The main pathophysiologic characteristic of chronic respiratory disease following extremely premature birth is arrested alveolar growth, which translates to a smaller alveolar surface area (S(A)). We aimed to use non-invasive measurements to estimate the S(A) in extremely preterm infants...
