<b>Background:</b> We seek to evaluate an automated method developed assess central airway shape (cross-sectional and longitudinal) variations in the context of a multi-center study, SPIROMICS, seeking phenotypes COPD. <b>Methods:</b> 717 subjects (GOLD 1: 28, GOLD 2: 275, 3: 293, 4: 121) randomly selected from SPIROMICS baseline scans. Matching TLC RV datasets were analyzed (VIDA Diagnostics) with focus on trachea left right mainstem bronchi (LMB, RMB). Measurements included: extent concave...
