Title: The Power of Numbers: Quantitative Imaging in Lung Disease Research

Abstract:

Computed tomography (CT) imaging offers a window into lung structure, enabling the extraction of valuable information in patients with lung disease. In this presentation, we will delve into both established and cutting-edge quantitative CT imaging techniques for lung disease assessment. We will also explore the potential of these methods to uncover novel insights into COPD progression, as well as their application in predicting outcomes for individuals living with COPD.
