Anatomically aware dual-hop learning for pulmonary embolism detection in CT pulmonary angiograms [PDF]
, 2023 Pulmonary Embolisms (PE) represent a leading cause of cardiovascular death. While medical imaging, through computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA), represents the gold standard for PE diagnosis, it is still susceptible to misdiagnosis or significant diagnosis delays, which may be fatal for critical cases.

What Makes for Automatic Reconstruction of Pulmonary Segments [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 3D reconstruction of pulmonary segments plays an important role in surgical treatment planning of lung cancer, which facilitates preservation of pulmonary function and helps ensure low recurrence rates. However, automatic reconstruction of pulmonary segments remains unexplored in the era of deep learning.

Tropical Pulmonary Eosinophilia Masquerading as Interstitial Lung Disease: An Interesting Case Report with Review of Literature [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2022 Tropical Pulmonary Eosinophilia (TPE) is a form of occult filariasis characterised clinically by paroxysms of nocturnal cough, wheezing and dyspnoea . It is due to hyper-responsive pulmonary reaction to trapped microfilaria inside the lung tissue. Though,

Detecting Pulmonary Embolism from Computed Tomography Using Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The clinical symptoms of pulmonary embolism (PE) are very diverse and non-specific, which makes it difficult to diagnose. In addition, pulmonary embolism has multiple triggers and is one of the major causes of vascular death. Therefore, if it can be detected and treated quickly, it can significantly reduce the risk of death in hospitalized patients. In

Lesson of the Week: Minocycline and pulmonary eosinophilia [PDF]
BMJ, 1995 Minocycline hydrochloride, a semisynthetic tetracycline derivative, is often prescribed by general practitioners and dermatologists for acne vulgaris in young people. It is also useful in treating bronchopulmonary and urinary tract infections. Longstanding familiarity with the drug has established its relative safety.1 Adverse effects that have been ...

Topology Repairing of Disconnected Pulmonary Airways and Vessels: Baselines and a Dataset [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Accurate segmentation of pulmonary airways and vessels is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary diseases. However, current deep learning approaches suffer from disconnectivity issues that hinder their clinical usefulness. To address this challenge, we propose a post-processing approach that leverages a data-driven method to repair the ...

Pulmonary Vessel Segmentation based on Orthogonal Fused U-Net++ of Chest CT Images [PDF]
, 2021 Pulmonary vessel segmentation is important for clinical diagnosis of pulmonary diseases, while is also challenging due to the complicated structure. In this work, we present an effective framework and refinement process of pulmonary vessel segmentation from chest computed tomographic (CT) images.
