Characterizing extravascular lung water—A dual-contrast agent extracellular volume approach by cardiovascular magnetic resonance

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
: Background: Pathological extravascular lung water is a facet of decompensated congestive heart failure that current cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) methods fail to quantify.

Lung Ultrasound as a Monitoring Tool [PDF]

Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases, 2020
Lung ultrasound has proven to be useful in detecting pneumothorax, interstitial syndrome, and lung consolidation. It is easily applied at the bedside, in real-time, and free of radiation hazards.

Whole lung lavage decreases physiological dead space in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis: two case reports 

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease characterized by progressive accumulation of the alveolar surfactant. Whole lung lavage (WLL) using a high volume of warmed saline remains the standard therapy.

Cardiopulmonary ultrasound correlates of pleural effusions in patients with congestive heart failure

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2022
Background Pleural effusions are common in patients with congestive heart failure. However, there is a need to assess systematically the correlation between effusion volume, extravascular lung water and echocardiographic parameters.

Deep fusion of gray level co-occurrence matrices for lung nodule classification [PDF]

, 2022
Lung cancer is a severe menace to human health, due to which millions of people die because of late diagnoses of cancer; thus, it is vital to detect the disease as early as possible. The Computerized chest analysis Tomography of scan is assumed to be one of the efficient solutions for detecting and classifying lung nodules.

Pulmonary Edema: Classification, Mechanisms of Development, Diagnosis

Общая реаниматология, 2009
Pulmonary edema remains a topical problem of modern reanimatology. In clinical practice, there is a need for continuous monitoring of the content of extravascular water in the lung and the pulmonary vascular permeability index for the timely detection ...

Observational study of potential risk factors of immersion pulmonary edema in healthy divers: exercise intensity is the main contributor

Sports Medicine - Open, 2017
Background The risk factors of pulmonary edema induced by diving in healthy subjects are not well known. The aim of the present study was to assess the parameters contributing to the increase in extravascular lung water after diving.
