Through a CT scan, radiologists take a series of high-resolution X-ray images to get a more in-depth look inside the body. Doctors can use CT scans to find masses on the lungs or pleura, but these imaging scans cannot always determine whether the mass represents cancer or a benign (non...
Ajeel et al. (2021)measured the levels of asbestos fibres in the dense air sites of Baghdad (Iraq). Samples were collected using a filter, then the levels of asbestos fibres were analysed using a scanning electron microscope and an energy dispersive X-ray system. The results showed that the...
Specialists must, according to law, save all X-ray images over 40years. Instead of archiving X-ray films this algorithm allows saving of wavelet coefficients vectors on magnetic or optical storage. Independent radiologists confirmed that medical data is unchanged. Secondary concern is to emphasize ...
Pleural thickening occurs when scar tissue thickens the thin membrane covering the lungs. Learn more about pleural thickening.
(XRF) microscopy, which reveals new features in the elemental lateral distribution./p pResults/p pThe X-ray absorption and phase contrast images and the simultaneously monitored XRF maps of tissue samples have revealed the location, distribution and elemental composition of asbestos bodies and ...
The X-ray images provide much more detailed morphology information compared to the optical microscope image (panel A). The absorp- tion contrast (panel B) clearly reveals the presence of very strongly absorbing periodically assembled segments of ~1-2 μm2, the edges of which are well defined ...

Other areas of concern in most of the studies included the use of FEF, a less stable measure of obstruction[12, 22, 33, 36], incomparable or absent control groups, [18, 23, 32], lack of DLCO measurement [32, 33], single chest -x-ray reader [23], and use of unadjusted FEV1/FVC...
