Visual Patterns of Diaphragmatic Motion in Acute Respiratory Failure: A Prospective Pilot Study

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 421-428, March/April 2025.
In this prospective bicentric study, we studied the relationship between the appearance of diaphragmatic motion and the etiological diagnosis of patients admitted to the emergency department with ARF. We observed a different visual pattern in patients with pneumonia. This is an interesting result as it allows the diagnosis of pneumonia without the need

Unilateral Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction Assessed by Biphasic Computed Tomographic Volumetry in Bilateral Living-donor Lobar Lung Transplantation

open access: yesTransplantation Direct, 2018
Background. Early diagnosis of unilateral chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) is difficult because the unaffected contralateral lung functions as a reservoir in bilateral living-donor lobar lung transplantation (LDLLT).

Changes in Pulmonary Functional Parameters after Surgical Treatment of Idiopathic Scoliosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
There is a controversy in results about influence of surgery on pulmonary function in idiopathic scoliosis. The aim of the study was to study pulmonary function in severe thoracic idiopathic scoliosis and to detect changes in pulmonary function after the

3D Automated Segmentation of Bronchial Abnormalities on Ultrashort Echo Time MRI: A Quantitative MR Outcome in Cystic Fibrosis

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) monitoring relies on computed tomography (CT), but ultra‐short echo time MRI (UTE‐MRI) offers a radiation‐free alternative. However, its clinical adoption is hindered by the laborious and subjective manual analysis, which prevents standardized quantification of bronchial abnormalities.

A study to assess the utility of forced expiratory volume in 1 second/forced expiratory volume in 6 seconds in diagnosing obstructive airway disease

open access: yesMonaldi Archives for Chest Disease
According to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease criteria, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in the 1st second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) is required to diagnose chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Comparison of Single‐Breath and Multi‐Breath Xe‐MRI in the Longitudinal Assessment of Treatment in Children With Cystic Fibrosis

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a current standard therapy for pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF). Multiple‐breath washout 129Xe MRI (MBW Xe‐MRI) is improved following 1 month of treatment. However, the utility of MBW Xe‐MRI over extended ETI treatment and its comparison to single‐breath Xe‐MRI and pulmonary function tests ...

The epigenetic clock is correlated with physical and cognitive fitness in the Lothian Birth Cohort 1936 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The DNA methylation-based 'epigenetic clock' correlates strongly with chronological age, but it is currently unclear what drives individual differences. We examine cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between the epigenetic clock and

Analysis of Pulsatile Vessel Expansion in Healthy, COPD‐and PH‐Patients Using Dynamic Vessel Segmentation in Free‐Breathing Lung MRI

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The pulsatile expansion of pulmonary vessels carries dynamic cardiopulmonary information that may reveal disease earlier than structural changes alone. Purpose To test (i) intra‐ and inter‐scan repeatability of dynamic vessel metrics in healthy subjects, and (ii) whether chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and postcapillary

Exploring the Clinical Potential of Dynamic Digital Radiography: A Narrative Review

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) is a promising X‐ray technology that captures rapid image sequences, enabling the visualisation of moving anatomical structures for various clinical applications, including pulmonary, cardiac and orthopaedic assessments.
