A size-based emphysema severity index: robust to the breath-hold-level variations and correlated with clinical parameters

OBJECTIVE: To determine the power-law exponents (D) of emphysema hole-size distributions as a competent emphysema index. Robustness to extreme breath-hold-level variations and correlations with clinical parameters for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) were investigated and compared to a c...
