Validation of computed tomography for measuring lung weight

BACKGROUND: Lung weight characterises severity of pulmonary oedema and predicts response to mechanical ventilation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of quantitative analysis of thorax computed tomography (CT) for measuring lung weight in pigs with or without pulmonary oedema. METHO...
