This review will discuss the images of the chest in patients with pulmonary emphysema. Image findings should be related to the structure of light, because emphysema is defined in anatomical terms. Thus, we first consider the anatomical definition of emphysema and its consequences, and then consider the results of imaging with emphasis on CT in patients with this disease. The more severe morphological emphysema, the more likely diagnosis is radiation, no matter what criteria are used. Criterion arterial insufficiency is a specific but insensitive.
Criteria used to evaluate Pererazduvanie sensitive but not specific. CT can be used for both qualitative and quantitative assessment of emphysema. The presence and extent of emphysema of the lungs can be identified by visual assessment of areas of abnormally low attenuation or weakening of the basis of objective quantitative value. Statistically
lasix 40 meq significant correlations between emphysema and CT has been shown in numerous studies, but soft morphologic emphysema may be missed by CT, CT and sometimes give false-positive results. In patients with moderate to severe emphysema, the severity of emphysema is underestimated on the basis of CT by approximately three times compared with the results of pathological examination of right lung samples. Despite these limitations, CT is the best way of life in the recognition of emphysema patients and may play an important role in the recognition of localized emphysema, undergoing surgical treatment. .
