In patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), low-dose CT achieved higher sensitivity than chest x-ray for detecting lung metastases and second primary lung cancer, but patients ...

"CT scans are the gold standard for detecting pneumonia, but repeated scans can expose patients to significant radiation." While the early diagnosis of lung infections in immunocompromised ...

Introduction: Deep learning-based methods can promote and save critical time for the diagnosis of pneumonia from computed tomography (CT) images of the chest, where the methods usually rely on large ...

Methods This multicentre prospective case–cohort study comprised 6406 subjects who underwent routine diagnostic chest CT for non-pulmonary indications. Using a case–cohort approach, we visually graded ...

Denoised ultra-low dose CT can effectively diagnose pneumonia in immunocompromised patients using only 2% of the radiation dose of standard CT. While the early diagnosis of lung infections in ...

Axial noncontrast chest CT lung window images in a 70-year-old male participant. (A) Normal-dose CT, (B) ultra-low-dose CT (ULDCT), and (C) denoised ULDCT images show tree-in-bud opacities (yellow ...

For patients with weakened immune systems, lung infections can be life threatening. CT scans are the gold standard for detecting pneumonia, but repeated scans can expose patients to significant ...

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with RA. Notably, RA-ILD shares several risk factors with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), namely male ...

Denoised ultra-low dose CT can effectively diagnose pneumonia in immunocompromised patients using only 2% of the radiation dose of standard CT, according to a study published today in Radiology: ...
