Fig. 3From: Diagnostic efficacy of visual subtypes and low attenuation area based on HRCT in the diagnosis of COPDROC curve for different methods on the diagnostic efficacy of COPD. A–C represented diagnostic efficiency of LAA, VS, LAA + VS respectively. D, E represented above indexes combined with basic characteristic in diagnosing COPD respectively. The plot showed that combining basic characteristics improved the diagnosis efficacy. Notes: LAA low attenuation area; VS visual subtypes, BC basic characteristics including symptoms, sex, BMI, mMRC scores and history of exacerbationsBack to article page
