Reduced ventilation–perfusion (V/Q) mismatch following endobronchial valve insertion demonstrated by Gallium‐68 V/Q photon emission tomography/computed tomography

Endobronchial valves (EBVs) are increasingly deployed in the management of severe emphysema. Initial studies focussed on volume reduction as the mechanism, with subsequent improvement in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV(1)). More recent studies have emphasized importance of perfusion on predicti...
