Regional lung function assessment using electrical impedance tomography in COPD, PRISm, and normal spirometry subjects: insights into early diagnostic potential
Through EIT-based pulmonary function assessment, it is possible to sensitively identify the spatio-temporal heterogeneity in COPD and PRISm patients. Regional lung function impairments, particularly in PRISm patients with an FEV1/FVC ratio ≥ 0.7, were detected using EIT, highlighting its potential for early COPD diagnosis.
