Diagnostic pitfalls in computed tomography of the chest

Acta Radiologica, 2022
Anatomical variants and imaging artifacts on thoracic computed tomography (CT), when unrecognized as such, can lead to radiological misinterpretation and erroneous diagnosis. This is a concise review of 15 common CT diagnostic pitfalls due to anatomical variants and imaging artifacts which have potential to be misinterpreted as significant pathology ...

Chest Computed Tomography in Children

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1985
This article describes the use of computed tomography for the evaluation of pediatric patients with a variety of chest diseases. Indications for chest CT, constraints of technical factors on the study, and analysis of the benefits of CT examination versus risks will also be discussed.

Computed tomography in chest diseases

Journal of Computed Tomography, 1981
Abstract The evaluation of mediastinum, lngs, and chest wall diseases can simutaneously be accomplished by computed tomography (CT). A wide range of congenital, inflammatory and neoplastic disorders seen at our institution are presented to show the additional information available by CT as opposed to conventional films.

ULTRAFAST COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY OF THE CHEST

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1994
Improvements in scan speed and resolution are changing the role of the pulmonary imager. An understanding of airway mechanics and blood flow physiology is required to take full advantage of the new technology. Assessment of regional airflow and blood flow provides information that is currently unavailable from clinical tools.

Computed tomography of the chest in the trauma patient

Clinical Radiology, 1989
Thirty-six (1.5%) of 2340 patients admitted to the Trauma Unit at UCSD Medical Center over a 26-month period had 46 chest CT scans. A retrospective review of these cases showed that CT was useful in the diagnosis and management of suspected post-traumatic infective complications, assessment of suspected sternoclavicular joint dislocation, and ...

Computed tomography in blunt chest trauma

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1987
While most injuries to the chest can be diagnosed by a portable supine radiograph, computed tomography (CT) adds significant findings that will influence patient management. In addition to requested CT chest examinations, we routinely obtain a limited chest CT during the initial work-up of traumatized patients referred to our radiology department for ...

Value of chest computed tomography in genitourinary malignancies

Urology, 1983
Fifty-one patients with genitourinary malignancies with normal chest x-ray films all had chest computerized tomography in an attempt to detect metastatic disease. One patient with a hypernephroma and another with a bladder carcinoma had metastatic nodules detected. One patient with a testicular tumor had a histologically confirmed benign nodule.

Computed tomography of the chest wall.

Radiology, 1980
Computed tomography of the chest wall has been mentioned in the literature, but the emphasis has been on evaluation of diseases of the pleura and mediastinum and depiction of metastatic nodules. The authors have attempted to demonstrate the usefulness of CT in the detection and treatment of chest wall disease and show that the incidence of involvement ...

Computed tomography of chest trauma.

Radiology, 1981
Computed tomography (CT) and radiography were used to study 20 patients with chest injuries. Excluding rib fractures, CT revealed 50 traumatic lesions ranging from extrapleural hematomas to pericardial fluid collections. In contrast, only 12 lesions were detected on the corresponding radiographs.

The future of computer-aided diagnostics in chest computed tomography

Khirurgiya. Zhurnal im. N.I. Pirogova, 2019
Recently, more and more attention has been paid to the utility of artificial intelligence in medicine. Radiology differs from other medical specialties with its high digitalization, so most software developers operationalize this area of medicine.
