Quantitative CT texture-based method to predict diagnosis and prognosis of fibrosing interstitial lung disease patterns [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Purpose: To utilize high-resolution quantitative CT (QCT) imaging features for prediction of diagnosis and prognosis in fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILD). Approach: 40 ILD patients (20 usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), 20 non-UIP pattern ILD) were classified by expert consensus of 2 radiologists and followed for 7 years.

In-hospital mortality following surgical lung biopsy for interstitial lung disease in the USA: 2000-2011 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Rationale: Surgical lung biopsy can help to determine a specific diagnosis in interstitial lung disease, but has associated risks. Most currently available mortality data are derived from case series and may not be generalizable to broader populations.

DUBLINE: A Deep Unfolding Network for B-line Detection in Lung Ultrasound Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
In the context of lung ultrasound, the detection of B-lines, which are indicative of interstitial lung disease and pulmonary edema, plays a pivotal role in clinical diagnosis. Current methods still rely on visual inspection by experts. Vision-based automatic B-line detection methods have been developed, but their performance has yet to improve in terms
