Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Cor Pulmonale
Small Intestinal Absorption in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Cor Pulmonale
Aim: To investigate whether patients with pulmonary hypertension have reduced absorption capacity compared to COPD patients without cor pulmonale potentially due to venous obstruction in the portal vein system.

Dyspnea, Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
Evaluation of Cardiopulmonary Diseases by Ultrasound
Historically, ultrasound imaging of the lung parenchyma has been challenging because of the high total ultrasound energy attenuation and scattering by the air in the lungs.
