Healthy Lung Vessel Morphology Derived From Thoracic Computed Tomography

Healthy Lung Vessel Morphology Derived From Thoracic Computed Tomography

Knowledge of the lung vessel morphology in healthy subjects is necessary to improve our understanding about the functional network of the lung and to recognize pathologic deviations beyond the normal inter-subject variation. Established values of normal lung morphology have been derived from necrops...
