Fungi infect humans when environmental spores are inhaled into the lungs. The lung is a heterogeneous organ. Conducting airways, including bronchi and bronchioles, branch until terminating in the alveolar airspace where gas exchange occurs.

Background: Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) is a rare lung condition affecting the bronchioles and alveoli. This study aimed to determine the course of the disease and response to treatment in a group of COP patients.
Materials And Methods: In a cohort study, patients' data including demographic features, chest imaging, spirometry, and blood tests, were recorded.

The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of breathing parameters, age, gender and disease status on the lung doses of the two ICS + LABA fixed combination dry powder drugs. Breathing parameters of 113 COPD patients were measured while inhaling through emptied NEXThaler® and Ellipta® inhalers and the corresponding lung doses were calculated. Lung dose of Foster® NEXThaler® was superior to the lung dose of Relvar® Ellipta® in around 85 % of the patients.

RATIONALE+OBJECTIVE/ Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by bronchiectasis on imaging, while functionally evolving towards obstructive impairment. Despite its assumed importance in CF, small airway remodeling and its relation to bronchiectasis, is still poorly understood. METHOD/ On high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT, 600µm, CF=21, control=6) and micro-computed tomography (µCT, 150µm, CF=3, control=1) scans of inflated explant lungs, AV% (airway/total lung volume) was calculated as marker for bronchiectasis, while airway segmentation was used for generation analysis.
