Comparison of Plethysmographic and Helium Dilution Lung Volumes: Which Is Best for COPD?

BACKGROUND: Theoretical considerations and limited scientific evidence suggest that whole-body plethysmography overestimates lung volume in patients with severe airflow obstruction. We sought to compare plethysmography (Pleth)-, helium dilution (He)- and CT scan-derived lung volume measurements in a...
