This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), part of the Cardiovascular Diseases Research (CFDA 93.837) federal grant program, aims to leverage quantitative imaging data from lung cancer screening to develop tools for detecting chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The $626,247 award to the Regents of the University of Michigan will fund research to: 1) characterize COPD-related pathology from lung cancer screening CT scans, and 2) build a clinician-friendly communication tool to facilitate COPD screening. The research seeks to address the challenge of widespread underdiagnosis of COPD by leveraging data collected during routine lung cancer screening. A sub-award of unspecified amount to 4Dmedical USA Inc. will support data analysis, manuscript generation, and publications related to the project. The award period runs from September 1, 2024 to July 31, 2028.
