Prediction of COPD Severity Using Electrical Impedance Tomography

Recruiting
Conditions
Electric Impedance
Respiratory Function Tests
Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive
Registration Number
NCT06359145
Lead Sponsor
Chinese PLA General Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to predict the CT visual score of emphysema with EIT-based parameters, in order to provide a non-invasive and convenient method for the evaluation of lung structure and physiological and pathological progression of COPD.

Detailed Description

Methods: By collecting pulmonary function data, CT visual scores, and EIT data, and employing deep machine learning algorithms to compare the predictive capabilities of EIT and PFT for CT visual scores of pulmonary emphysema, this study aims to validate the ability of EIT to assess the progression of COPD.
