Semi-Supervised Segmentation of Radiation-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis from Lung CT Scans with Multi-Scale Guided Dense Attention [PDF]
, 2021 Computed Tomography (CT) plays an important role in monitoring radiation-induced Pulmonary Fibrosis (PF), where accurate segmentation of the PF lesions is highly desired for diagnosis and treatment follow-up. However, the task is challenged by ambiguous boundary, irregular shape, various position and size of the lesions, as well as the difficulty in ...

Left ventricular dysfunction in an idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patient on nintedanib
Respirology Case Reports, 2020 Nintedanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is approved for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. We report a case of left ventricular dysfunction in a patient with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis treated with nintedanib, which recovered after ...

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Telomeres
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022 Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is an interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology with a highly compromised prognosis and a significant mortality rate within a few years of diagnosis. Despite being idiopathic, it has been shown that telomeric shortening could play an important role in its etiopathogenesis.

Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5 promotes pulmonary fibrosis by modulating β-catenin signaling
Nature Communications, 2022 Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a fatal lung disease with limited treatment options. Here the authors show that tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5 (Acp5) promotes lung fibrosis by enhancing beta-catenin signaling and that inhibition of Acp5 can ...

Margin-Aware Intra-Class Novelty Identification for Medical Images [PDF]
Journal of Medical Imaging 2022, 2021 Traditional anomaly detection methods focus on detecting inter-class variations while medical image novelty identification is inherently an intra-class detection problem. For example, a machine learning model trained with normal chest X-ray and common lung abnormalities, is expected to discover and flag idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis which a rare lung ...
