Summary
This study explores whether electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a non-invasive imaging method, can effectively monitor lung function and diagnose lung diseases like COPD, asthma, and pneumonia. Researchers will compare EIT results with standard spirometry in 400 adults, including healthy volunteers and patients with lung conditions. The goal is to develop a machine learning model that predicts spirometry values from EIT, potentially offering a better option for patients who struggle with traditional breathing tests.
