Quantitatively Assessed Emphysema Severity on HRCT Independently Predicts Coronary Artery Disease in COPD: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Quantitative HRCT-based emphysema independently predicts CAD in COPD and demonstrates additive risk with traditional cardiovascular factors. Integrating emphysema quantification with clinical risk assessment improves CAD risk stratification in COPD patients.
