Analysis of tissue lipidomics and computed tomography pulmonary fat attenuation volume ( CT PFAV ) in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Aberrant cell lipid metabolism has been described in IPF but the underlying mechanisms are underexplored. In this study, chest CT is used to assess pulmonary fat attenuation volume (PFAV) in IPF. CT PFAV correlates with spirometry and IPF radiological markers. With further validation, CT PFAV could...

Description
Summary:Aberrant cell lipid metabolism has been described in IPF but the underlying mechanisms are underexplored. In this study, chest CT is used to assess pulmonary fat attenuation volume (PFAV) in IPF. CT PFAV correlates with spirometry and IPF radiological markers. With further validation, CT PFAV could be used as a disease severity biomarker.
