Enhancement and compression of digital chest radiographs
Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1990The application of digital technologies to chest radiography holds the promise of routine application of image processing techniques to effect image enhancement. Because of their inherent spatial resolution, however, digital chest images impose severe constraints on data storage devices.

Chest Compression-induced Vertebral Fractures
Chest, 1986Two cases with chest compression-induced thoracolumbar transvertebral fractures are discussed. This is a previously unreported complication of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Dorsal kyphosis and osteopenia were present in both of these cases. There was no spinal cord injury documented, though the potential for injury and paraplegia exists.

Impairment of cerebral bloodflow by chest compression
Forensic Science, 1977A 5-year-old boy had his chest compressed by the moving belt of an escalator for about 10 to 15 minutes. The patient suffered seizures and was unconscious for eight months. The clinical and histological findings are reported, and compared with the findings of experiments on fatal chest compression in rabbits.

Effect of Chest Compressions on Ventricular Activation
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2012External mechanical forces can cause ventricular capture and fibrillation (i.e., commotio cordis). In animals, we showed that chest compressions (CCs) can also cause the phenomenon. The aim of the present study was to determine whether ventricular capture by CCs occurs in humans.

Performing chest compressions in a confined space
Resuscitation, 2004Standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) may be difficult to perform in a confined space. This study set out to evaluate alternative techniques of chest compression, which may be easier to perform in such situations. Nineteen airline employees, trained in basic life support (BLS), were recruited to take part in the study.

The concept of “external cardiac massage,” first introduced in the early 1960s by Kouwenhoven, Jude, and Knickerbocker (1), includes chest compressions at a rate of 60 to 100 per minute in conjunction with mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing (2). Refinements of standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) since its introduction in the 1960s have included ...
