The aim of this study was to assess variability in quantitative air trapping (QAT) measurements derived from spatially aligned expiration CT scans. Sixty-four paired CT examinations, from 16 school-age cystic fibrosis subjects examined at four separate time intervals, were used in this study. For each pair, visually inspected lobe segmentation maps were generated and expiration CT data were registered to the inspiration CT frame. Measurements of QAT, the percentage of voxels on the expiration CT scan below a set threshold were calculated for each lobe and whole-lung from the registered expiration CT and compared to the true values from the unregistered data. A mathematical model, which simulates the effect of variable regions of lung deformation on QAT values calculated from aligned to those from unaligned data, showed the potential for large bias. Assessment of experimental QAT measurements using Bland-Altman plots corroborated the model simulations, demonstrating biases greater than 5% when QAT was approximately 40% of lung volume. These biases were removed when calculating QAT from aligned expiration CT data using the determinant of the Jacobian matrix. We found, by Dice coefficient analysis, good agreement between aligned expiration and inspiration segmentation maps for the whole-lung and all but one lobe (Dice coefficient > 0.9), with only the lingula generating a value below 0.9 (mean and standard deviation of 0.85 ± 0.06). The subtle and predictable variability in corrected QAT observed in this study suggests that image registration is reliable in preserving the accuracy of the quantitative metrics.
