Summary

The purpose of this study is to predict the CT visual score of emphysema with EIT-based parameters, in order to provide a non-invasive and convenient method for the evaluation of lung structure and physiological and pathological progression of COPD.

* Clinical physicians suspect a patient may have COPD based on symptoms and physical examination, but a definitive diagnosis has not been confirmed through PFTs.
* Age \> 20 years, and be able to communicate with doctors.
* Willing to sign informed consent for the course of the study.
