On the basis of clinical observations the course of pulmonary involvement in cystic fibrosis is studied, and an attempt at classification into three severity groups is made. Clinical and radiological findings, quantified by special scores, are presented and correlations between scores and lung function data are demonstrated. Although respiratory function tests - in particular the ratio of residual volume to total lung capacity (RV/TLC) - correlate with the clinical and chest radiographic scores, division into three severity degrees is only reliable for groups of patients. In the individual patient the clinical, radiological and lung function findings must be taken into account together. Assessment according to a scoring system may be helpful.
基于临床观察，对囊性纤维化肺部受累的病程进行了研究，并尝试将其分为三个严重程度组。通过特殊评分进行量化的临床和放射学检查结果被呈现出来，并展示了评分与肺功能数据之间的相关性。尽管呼吸功能测试——尤其是残气量与肺总量之比（RV/TLC）——与临床和胸部X线评分相关，但仅对患者群体分为三个严重程度等级才是可靠的。对于个体患者，必须综合考虑临床、放射学和肺功能检查结果。根据评分系统进行评估可能会有所帮助。
