Abstract
Rationale: Studies of excised lungs show that significant airway attrition in the “quiet” zone occurs early in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Objectives: To determine if the total number of airways quantified in vivo using computed tomography (CT) reflects early airway-related disease changes and is associated with lung function decline independent of emphysema in COPD.Methods: Participants in the multicenter, population-based,...
