Density patterns in the normal lung as determined by computed tomography.

Lung density patterns in a group of randomly selected, normal individuals were determined by computed tomography, using two methods: one measuring the density of the peripheral lung (parenchyma), and the other determining the density of the whole lung field. The effects of body position and respiratory phase, as well as patient age were assessed. The potential use for this information in clinical settings and in physiological investigation is suggested.

Computed tomography of the lung.

Preliminary work has shown that normal lungs have predictable CT patterns and density ranges. In emphysema, there are irregular zones of extremely low density as well as an overall low mean density. CT appears to have considerable potential for early detection of pulmonary emphysema and characterization of the degree of involvement. CT can also be useful in the study of physiological phenomena such as regional blood flow.
