Evaluation of peripheral bronchiole visualization using model-based iterative reconstruction in quarter-detector computed tomography

This study aimed to evaluate the visualization of peripheral bronchioles in normal lungs via quarter-detector computed tomography (QDCT). Visualization of bronchioles within 10 mm from the pleura is considered a sign of bronchiectasis. However, it is not known peripheral bronchioles how close to the...
