Association Between Airway Caliber Changes With Lung Inflation and Emphysema Assessed by Volumetric CT Scan in Subjects With COPD

BACKGROUND: An increase in airway caliber (airway distensibility) with lung inflation is attenuated in COPD. Furthermore, some subjects have a decrease in airway caliber with lung inflation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that airway caliber increases are lower in subjects with emphysema-predominan...
