Sammanfattning
We present a case of emphysema with severely reduced DL CO and inconclusive LFT and chest radiogram. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) revealed extensive emphysema and excluded lung embolism. HRCT should be used in equivocal cases to ensure a definitive diagnosis and assess the severity of emphysema.
