This study aimed to investigate the effects of intravenous injection of iodine contrast agent on the tracheal diameter and lung volume. In this retrospective study, a total of 221 patients (71.1 ± 12.4 years, 174 males) who underwent vascular dynamic...
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...
Respiratory diseases are leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Pulmonary imaging is an essential component of the diagnosis, treatment planning, monitoring, and treatment assessment of respiratory diseases. Insights into numerous pulmo...
BACKGROUND: Whether compensatory lung growth occurs in adult humans is controversial. The aim of this study was to confirm compensatory lung growth by analyzing ipsilateral residual lung after lower lobectomy in living lung transplant donors with qua...
