“…The common threshold defining the lung parenchyma in emphysema was -900 to -960HU, and the most commonly used threshold was -950 HU [24]. In some study, different thresholds in the same sample had different correlations with airflow obstruction parameters in PFT [18,20,35,40].The broad range of published CCs between CT and PFT parameters were as follow: %LAA-950 and FEV 1 %pred, -0.66 to -0.09 [18,19]; %LAA-950 and FEV 1 /FVC, -0.75 to -0.09 [18,69]; %LAA 950 and FEV 1 %pred, -0.63 to -0.28 [19,59]; %LAA 950 and FEV 1 /FVC -0.66 to -0.54 [19,35];WA% and FEV 1 %pred, -0.713 to -0.044 [30,70];MLD and FEV 1 %pred, 0.18 to 0.85 [18,68]; MLD and FEV 1 /FVC, 0.21 to 0.89 [18,19];ATI and FEV 1 %pred, -0.725 to -0.29 [41,48]; WT and FEV 1 %pred, -0.68 to -0.13 [33,35]; WT and FEV 1 /FVC, -0.62 to -0.05 [33,35]; AI and FEV 1 %pred, 0.73 to 0.14 [28,33]; AI and FEV 1 /FVC, 0.32 to 0.07 [33,46];%LAA-950 and FEV 1 %pred by GE, -0.67 to -0.43 [26,60]; %LAA-950 and FEV 1 %pred by non-GE (such as Siemens, Toshiba, and Philips), -0.67 to -0.43 [39,47](Supplementary Table 3).…”
