Abstract
This article reviews the differential diagnosis of obstructive lung di sease, including lesions that may mimic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as well as the tools on which the clinician relies for making a proper diagnosis. The clinician's view of the radiologist's role is briefly discussed, but the details of specific radiologic techniques are discussed elsewhere in this issue.
