Physiologic similarities and differences between COPD and asthma.

Chest - 1 Aug 2004

Sciurba Frank C

Abstract excerpt

The structural and physiologic findings in asthma and COPD appear, on average, and in the extremes of presentation, to be easily distinguished. A closer inspection of the literature reveals that significant overlap exists in individual patients with respect to airway wall thickening and low-attenuation parenchymal regions on CT scans, and in reversibility, airway hyperresponsiveness, lung diffusion, resting and...
