Chest three‐dimensional‐computed tomography imaging data analysis for the variation of exercise capacity after lung lobectomy

Postoperative loss of exercise capacity and pulmonary function is a major concern among lung cancer patients. In this study, the time for a stair‐climbing to 12‐m height was used to investigate whether preoperative chest 3D‐computed tomography (CT) could be a useful tool for predicting postoperative variations in exercise capacity and pulmonary function.
