Exclusion of emphysematous lung from dose-volume estimates of risk improves prediction of radiation pneumonitis

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2017
Background The risk factors for radiation pneumonitis (RP) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are unclear. Mean lung dose (MLD) and percentage of irradiated lung volume are common predictors of RP, but the most accurate ...

Automatic algorithm for quantifying lung involvement in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, infection with SARS-CoV-2, paracoccidioidomycosis and no lung disease patients

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
In this work, we aimed to develop an automatic algorithm for the quantification of total volume and lung impairments in four different diseases. The quantification was completely automatic based upon high resolution computed tomography exams.

lung-nodule-volume-growth-analysis.pdf

open access: yes, 2022
The objective of this work was to develop an automated computerized algorithm to detect the cancerous nature of lung. An Auto Cluster K-means segmentation (ACKMS) was used to segment the lung nodules from CT scans. ACKMS algorithm was developed such that

The Effect of Lung Volume on the Size and Volume of Pulmonary Subsolid Nodules on CT: Intraindividual Comparison between Total Lung Capacity and Tidal Volume

open access: yes대한영상의학회지, 2021
Purpose To examine the effect of lung volume on the size and volume of pulmonary subsolid nodules (SSNs) measured on CT. Materials and Methods A total of 42 SSNs from 31 patients were included. CT examination was first performed at total lung capacity

Supine posture changes lung volumes and increases ventilation heterogeneity in cystic fibrosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Lung Clearance Index (LCI) is recognised as an early marker of cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. The effect of posture on LCI however is important when considering longitudinal measurements from infancy and when comparing LCI to imaging studies.35 ...

Comparison Between Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Computed Tomography in the Detection and Volumetric Assessment of Lung Nodules: A Prospective Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Rationale and ObjectivesComputed tomography (CT) lung nodule assessment is routinely performed and appears very promising for lung cancer screening. However, the radiation exposure through time remains a concern.

The effect of Hugo point acupressure massage on respiratory volume and pain intensity due to deep breathing in patients with chest tube after chest surgeries

open access: yesContemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 2022
Introduction: Hugo point is the most important pain control point in the body, so the study was performed to determine the effect of Hugo point massage on respiratory volume and the pain intensity after chest tube placement.
