OBJECTIVE: To explore the value of six machine learning models based on PET/CT radiomics combined with EGFR in predicting brain metastases of lung adenocarcinoma.
PURPOSE: Radiotherapy planning incorporating functional lung images has the potential to reduce pulmonary toxicity. Free-breathing 4DCT-derived ventilation image (CTVI) may help quantify lung function. This study introduces a novel deep-learning mode...

The shortcomings of qualitative visual assessment have led to the development of computer-based tools to characterise and quantify disease on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in patients with interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). Quantitative ...
Deep learning plays a significant role in the detection of pulmonary nodules in low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) scans, contributing to the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. Nevertheless, its effectiveness often relies on the availability of...

The incidence of COVID-19, a virus that is responsible for infections in the upper respiratory tract and lungs, witnessed a daily rise in fatalities throughout the pandemic. The timely identification of COVID-19 can contribute to the formulation of s...
BACKGROUND: Flow starvation is a type of patient-ventilator asynchrony that occurs when gas delivery does not fully meet the patients' ventilatory demand due to an insufficient airflow and/or a high inspiratory effort, and it is usually identified by...
Pneumonia, an inflammatory lung condition primarily triggered by bacteria, viruses, or fungi, presents distinctive challenges in pediatric cases due to the unique characteristics of the respiratory system and the potential for rapid deterioration. Ti...
