Abstract Objectives Parametric response mapping (PRM) enables the evaluation of small airway disease (SAD) at the voxel level, but requires both inspiratory and expiratory chest CT scans. We hypothesize that deep learning PRM from inspiratory chest CT scans can effectively evaluate SAD in individuals with normal spirometry. Methods We included 537 participants with normal spirometry, a history of smoking or secondhand smoke exposure, and divided them into training, tuning, and test sets. A cascaded generative adversarial network generated expiratory CT from inspiratory CT, followed by a UNet-like network predicting PRM using real inspiratory CT and generated expiratory CT. The performance of the prediction is evaluated using SSIM, RMSE and dice coefficients. Pearson correlation evaluated the correlation between predicted and ground truth PRM. ROC curves evaluated predicted PRM^fSAD (the volume percentage of functional small airway disease, fSAD) performance in stratifying SAD. Results Our method can generate expiratory CT of good quality (SSIM 0.86, RMSE 80.13 HU). The predicted PRM dice coefficients for normal lung, emphysema, and fSAD regions are 0.85, 0.63, and 0.51, respectively. The volume percentages of emphysema and fSAD showed good correlation between predicted and ground truth PRM (|r| were 0.97 and 0.64, respectively, p < 0.05). Predicted PRM^fSAD showed good SAD stratification performance with ground truth PRM^fSAD at thresholds of 15%, 20% and 25% (AUCs were 0.84, 0.78, and 0.84, respectively, p < 0.001). Conclusion Our deep learning method generates high-quality PRM using inspiratory chest CT and effectively stratifies SAD in individuals with normal spirometry.
