Abstract

Improvements in scan speed and resolution are changing the role of the pulmonary imager. An understanding of airway mechanics and blood flow physiology is required to take full advantage of the new technology. Assessment of regional airflow and blood flow provides information that is currently unavailable from clinical tools.
