Background Longitudinal follow-up of interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) at CT mainly relies on the evaluation of the extent of ILD, without accounting for lung shrinkage. Purpose To develop a deep learning-based method to depict worsening of ILD based...
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a heterogeneous, severe and progressive disease with an impact on quality of life and life-expectancy despite specific therapies.
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: Interstitial lung disease requires frequent re-examination, which directly causes excessive cumulative radiation exposure. To date, AI has not been applied to CT for enhancing clinical care; thus, we hypothesize AI may empower CT with int...

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) refers to a group of various abnormal inflammations of lung tissues and early diagnosis of these disease patterns is crucial for the treatment. Yet it is difficult to make an accurate diagnosis due to the similarity am...
Subtle interstitial changes in the lung parenchyma of smokers, known as Interstitial Lung Abnormalities (ILA), have been associated with clinical outcomes, including mortality, even in the absence of Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD). Although several ...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility of a deep learning-based detection (DLD) system for multiclass lesions on chest radiograph, in comparison with observers.
BACKGROUND: Based on international diagnostic guidelines, high-resolution CT plays a central part in the diagnosis of fibrotic lung disease. In the correct clinical context, when high-resolution CT appearances are those of usual interstitial pneumoni...
