Abstract

Differing stages of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are characterized by differing radioaerosol images. Localized aerosol hot spots in the lungs in advanced COPD may correspond to flow-limiting segments. Avoidance of such localized deposition could be an important factor in the effective administration of therapeutic aerosols.
