CT Air Trapping Is Independently Associated with Lung Function Reduction over Time

PURPOSE: We aimed to study the association between lung function decline and quantitative computed tomography (CT) air trapping. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Current and former heavy smokers in a lung cancer screening trial underwent volumetric low-dose CT in inspiration and expiration. Spirometry was obt...
