A complete fissure in one demonstrating integrity across 90% or more between separated lobes and this correlates with better outcomes. Collateral ventilation may also be assessed bronchoscopically. |- ||Bronchiectasis: ||Yes/No. || This is a separate disease process that would only benefit from resection in its own right and with different benefit e.g. reduced infective episodes as opposed to improved respiratory function. Presence in lung spared from emphysema indicates abnormal lung. |- ||Signs of pulmonary hypertension: ||Yes/No.||LVRS may increase pulmonary arterial hypertension |- ||Fibrosis: ||Yes/No. Type. Location||Interstitial disease may inhibit re-expansion. |- ||Lung nodules: ||Insert options here ||In some cases resection and LVRS may be appropriate and beneficial |- ||Bones/thoracic cage: || ||Any restrictive thoracic cage abnormality should be noted |- ||Extra-pulmonary findings: || || |} ''References:''<br /> 1.
