What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to identify correlations among data deriving from lung ultrasonographic (LUS) and tomographic evaluations of patients with panlobular or paraseptal emphysema, to improve the comprehension of acoustic information derived from ultrasound evaluation. The main question it aims to answer is: what are the correlations between thoracic ultrasonographic patterns and peripheral parenchymal changes evaluated by high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest, in patients affected with variable degree of panlobular or paraseptal emphysema? Researchers will compare LUS patterns observed in: 1) COPD patients with CT evidence of panlobular or paraseptal emphysema, 2) subjects participating in the screening program for lung cancer with CT evidence of panlobular or paraseptal emphysema, and 3) patients with suspected/known lung cancer undergoing with CT eviden
