The purposes of this study were to evaluate the quality of coronal reformatted images obtained from volumetric expiratory high-resolution CT imaging and to compare coronal and axial images with regard to their usefulness in detecting and characterizing air trapping. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. We studied 40 consecutive patients with known or suspected diffuse lung diseases with airway abnormalities who underwent volumetric expiratory high-resolution CT between May and July 2003. Respiratory motion artifacts were evaluated at upper, middle, and lower lung areas. Cardiac motion, beam-hardening, and other artifacts were evaluated throughout the lung fields. Detectability, clarity of borders, size, distribution, and extent of air trapping were compared on axial versus coronal end-expiratory high-resolution CT images.
