- Abstract
The article informs about the use of four-dimensional (4D) computed tomography (CT) to assess ventilatory dynamics and lung volume changes in mechanically ventilated patients, aiming to validate its accuracy by comparing gas volume changes with ventilator volume and electrical impedance tomography (EIT). Topic include discusses the potential applications of 4D CT, including detailed analysis of whole lung dynamics and evaluation of regional lung volume, with limited radiation exposure.
