Use of Ventilation-Perfusion Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography to Select the Target Lobe for Endobronchial Valve Lung Volume Reduction

Conclusion: In this study of treatment responders, EBV-LVR target lobe selection using VQDI concurs with qCT and thus supports its value for this purpose. It complements qCT and may potentially be of synergistic value especially in homogenous emphysema.Respiration
