DOI: 10.1002/ppul.24378
Abstract: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease of prematurity defined by requirement for respiratory support at 36 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA), but structural sequelae like lung hyperinflation are often not quantified. Quiet‐breathing, nonsedated magnetic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00276-020-02512-9
Abstract: Most of the previous studies evaluating lung volume of pectus excavatum (PE) patients were based on spirometric measurements. We aimed to calculate lung volume of patients with PE and compare them with lung volume of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102457
Abstract: Background Obesity could affect many functions of the body systems, particularly respiratory system. Effect of obesity on respiratory system leads to an impairment in pulmonary function tests which is represented by a decrease in lung… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/heartjnl-2020-318574
Abstract: Objective Patients with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) have limited pulmonary blood flow before corrective surgery and ongoing dysfunction of the pulmonary valve and right ventricle throughout life leading to lower exercise capacity and lung volumes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/1393003.congress-2017.pa3331
Abstract: Introduction: Ventilatory failure is the main cause of death in DMD. With the progression of the disease it is extremely important to monitor lung function in order to identify possible early signs of ventilatory insufficiency.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13061201
Abstract: Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) has been used for detecting pulmonary embolism, but the role of lung perfusion DECT as a predictor of prognosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has not been defined yet. The aim… read more here.
