Obstructive pulmonary disease. The clinician's perspective.
Stulbarg MS, Frank JA
This article reviews the differential diagnosis of obstructive lung
disease, including lesions that may mimic chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease, as well as the tools on which the clinician relies for making
a proper diagnosis. The clinician's view of the radiologist's role is briefly
discussed, but the details of specific radiologic techniques are discussed
elsewhere in this issue.
