Early diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases secondary to connective tissue diseases is critical for the treatment and survival of patients. The symptoms, like dry cough and dyspnea, appear late in the clinical history and are not specific, moreover...
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is now diagnosed by an ILD-board consisting of radiologists, pulmonologists, and pathologists. They discuss the combination of computed tomography (CT) images, pulmonary function tests, demographic information, and his...
BACKGROUND: Antifibrotic therapies are available to treat chronic fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (CF-ILDs), including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Early use of these treatments is recommended to slow deterioration of respiratory function and ...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the utility of an automatic deep learning (DL) method for segmentation of T2 maps in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) against healthy controls, and also the association of quantitative T2 values in patien...
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, irreversible, and usually fatal lung disease of unknown reasons, generally affecting the elderly population. Early diagnosis of IPF is crucial for triaging patients' treatment planning...

Interstitial lung disease (ILD), representing a collection of disorders, is considered to be the deadliest one, which increases the mortality rate of humans. In this paper, an automated scheme for detection and classification of ILD patterns is prese...
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether deep learning reconstruction (DLR) could keep image quality and reduce radiation dose in interstitial lung disease (ILD) patients compared with HRCT reconstructed with hybrid iterative reconstruction (hybrid-IR).
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, ...
High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) images in interstitial lung disease (ILD) screening can help improve healthcare quality. However, most of the earlier ILD classification work involves time-consuming manual identification of the region of in...
