Evaluation of Regional Pulmonary Ventilation in Spontaneously Breathing Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) Employing Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT): A Pilot Study from the European IPF Registry (eurIPFreg)
Objectives: In idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), alterations in the pulmonary surfactant system result in an increased alveolar surface tension and favor repetitive alveolar collapse. This study aimed to assess the usefulness of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) in characterization of regiona...
