Regional analysis of airway abnormalities in cystic fibrosis employing Electrical Impedance Tomography

To estimate the severity of airway abnormalities in cystic fibrosis (CF) Brody et al. developed a computed tomography (CT) scoring system. Each pulmonary lobe is analyzed separately considering various morphological defects. A study from Zhao et al. demonstrates that this CTbased score correlates wi...
