Assessing the impact of posture on diaphragm morphology and function using an open upright MRI system – a pilot study (2020)
Journal Article

Purpose The diaphragm is the most important muscle of respiration. Disorders of the diaphragm can have a deleterious impact on respiratory function. We aimed to evaluate the use of an open-configuration upright low-field MRI system to assess diaphra...

Target renal damage: the microvascular associations of increased aortic stiffness in patients with COPD (2013)
Journal Article

Background Although renal impairment has been described in COPD, there is opportunity to evaluate further to determine nature and consider optimal management. Increased aortic stiffness, as seen in COPD, leads to reduced buffering of pulsatile flow....
