Résumé

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by low vital capacity and tidal volume, which translate into smaller respiratory motions. We sought to demonstrate the limited respiratory motion in COPD by comparing respiratory-gated and free-breathing positron emission tomography (PET) images of lung nodules ("CT-based" and "Ungated" images) in patients with and without COPD.
