Background Total lung capacity (TLC) has been estimated with use of chest radiographs based on time-consuming methods, such as planimetric techniques and manual measurements. Purpose To develop a deep learning-based, multidimensional model capable of...
OBJECTIVES: To identify and evaluate predictive lung imaging markers and their pathways of change during progression of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) from sequential data of an IPF cohort. To test if these imaging markers predict outcome.
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, often fatal form of interstitial lung disease (ILD) characterized by the absence of a known cause and usual interstitial pneumonitis (UIP) pattern on chest CT imaging and/or histopatho...

Interstitial pneumonia is a heterogeneous disease with a progressive course and poor prognosis, at times even worse than those in the main cancer types. Histopathological examination is crucial for its diagnosis and estimation of prognosis. However, ...

Pulmonary fibrosis is a severe chronic lung disease that causes irreversible scarring in the tissues of the lungs, which results in the loss of lung capacity. The Forced Vital Capacity () of the patient is an interesting measure to investigate this d...
Therapies halting the progression of fibrosis are ineffective and limited. Activated myofibroblasts are emerging as important targets in the progression of fibrotic diseases. Previously, we performed a high-throughput screen on lung fibroblasts and s...
AIM: To compare the machine learning computed tomography (CT) quantification tool, Computer-Aided Lung Informatics for Pathology Evaluation and Ratings (CALIPER) to pulmonary function testing (PFT) in assessing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) for...
A large number of fibroblast foci (FF) predict mortality in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Other prognostic histological markers have not been identified. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a possibility to quantitate possible prognostic histo...
Interstitial lung diseases are a diverse group of disorders that involve inflammation and fibrosis of interstitium, with clinical, radiological, and pathological overlapping features. These are an important cause of morbidity and mortality among lung...
BACKGROUND: In the appropriate clinical setting, the diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) requires a pattern of usual interstitial pneumonia to be present on high-resolution chest CT (HRCT) or surgical lung biopsy. A molecular usual inter...
