Cystic fibrosisMRIfunctional lung imaging3He CT scoringManagement of CF patients currently relies on clinical status, lung function tests, sputum cultures and scoring systems based on chest X-ray (CXR). None of these tests give adequate information about regional lung function or are sensitive ...
In medical imaging, the last decade has witnessed a remarkable increase in the availability and diversity of chest X-ray (CXR) datasets. Concurrently, ther
Haut dataset contains 1647 normal individuals and 1138 patients with CXR’s lung field masks, including 193 with Infiltration, 111 with Atelectasis, 78 with Effusion, 65 with Nodule, 54 with Mass, 43 with Pneumothorax, 37 with Cardiomegaly, 37 with pleural thickening, 34 with Fibrosis, 25 ...
Internal testing in PLCO: First, CXR-Lung-Risk was independently tested in the remaining held-out dataset of PLCO (n = 10,155) not seen during any part of training. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed a graded association between CXR-Lung-Risk categories and lung disease mortality (Fi...
Two forms of endothelin act differently in drug-induced lung disease People with pulmonary (lung) fibrosis, an incurable condition in which the lung tissue becomes thick and scarred, have been found to have higher levels of ET-1. Certain medications, including bleomycin, a drug used to treatcan...
Chest x-rays (CXR) and white blood cell counts were attended daily. A VAP was diagnosed according to previously established criteria. A second set of ... DLG Hawkins - 《Australian Critical Care》 被引量: 58发表: 2003年 The Role of Surveillance Chest X-Rays in the Follow-Up of High-Ri...
(a) Chronic hypersensitivity: axial lung window CT image shows coarse diffuse fibrosis. (b) Chronic hypersensitivity: coronal lung window CT image reveals that the fibrosis is somewhat accentuated in the mid-lungs. Hypersensitivity pneumonia: hypersensitivity pneumonia or extrinsic allergic alveolitis is...

The other 197 cases were controls, including benign lung diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis, infection, sarcoidosis, and bronchiectasis, etc. Nine patients were diagnosed with malignancies in other systems, including one thyroid carcinoma, one osteosarcoma, and seven esophageal cancer (Table 1). The...
38. These fibrotic ILAs can be of limited clinical significance; less than 2% of the patients with fibrotic ILAs and DLCO defects were symptomatic or dyspnoeic39. Thus, CT imaging should only be considered in patients with severe disease when there is high suspicion for pulmonary fibrosis or ...
