Conclusions
Among older adults, dysanapsis was significantly associated with COPD, with lower airway tree caliber relative to lung size associated with greater COPD risk. Dysanapsis appears to be a risk factor associated with COPD.
VIDA’s Role
Central airway tree lumen diameters at 19 standard anatomic locations (trachea to subsegments) and total lung volume were segmented and measured from inspiratory chest CT images using VIDA’s software in all 3 studies by trained technologists unaware of other participant information.
