Abstract
Long C0VID symptoms are heterogeneous overall, however respiratory symptoms make up a large proportion of the persistent effects that people may experience following a C0VID infection. The C0VID-19 pandemic has driven a considerable wave of new patients that now require care of respiratory specialists, yet there remains a limited understanding of the lung pathophysiology that drives these respiratory symptoms. We further suspect that the respiratory pathophysiology itself is heterogeneous between patients, therefore we derived imaging-based phenotypes of long C0VID. This work directly aligns with the ICRH mandate by developing a better understanding of the respiratory pathophysiology of long C0VID, towards improving care for these patients
