Interleukin-17 is required for control of chronic lung infection caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Chronic pulmonary infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a feature of cystic fibrosis (CF) and other chronic lung diseases. Cytokines of the IL-17 family have been proposed as important in the host response to P. aeruginosa infection through augmenting

Diffusion Weighted Imaging Can Distinguish Benign from Malignant Mediastinal Tumors and Mass Lesions: Comparison with Positron Emission Tomography.

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention, 2015
BACKGROUND Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) makes it possible to detect malignant tumors based on the diffusion of water molecules. It is uncertain whether DWI is more useful than positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET ...

Integrating cross-modality hallucinated MRI with CT to aid mediastinal lung tumor segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Lung tumors, especially those located close to or surrounded by soft tissues like the mediastinum, are difficult to segment due to the low soft tissue contrast on computed tomography images. Magnetic resonance images contain superior soft-tissue contrast information that can be leveraged if both modalities were available for training.

A case of metastatic Wilms’ tumour with reversible distortion of mediastinal anatomy : a diagnostic challenge for the echocardiographer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Delineation and documentation of anatomy in the presence of significant mass pathology presents a diagnostic challenge. This often necessitates the implementation of more than one imaging modality in order to perform an adequate assessment.

Segmentation of Mediastinal Lymph Nodes in CT with Anatomical Priors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Purpose: Lymph nodes (LNs) in the chest have a tendency to enlarge due to various pathologies, such as lung cancer or pneumonia. Clinicians routinely measure nodal size to monitor disease progression, confirm metastatic cancer, and assess treatment response.
