Biomarkers for Pulmonary Inflammation and Fibrosis and Lung Ventilation Function in Chinese Occupational Refractory Ceramic Fibers-Exposed Workers.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Refractory ceramic fibers (RCFs) can cause adverse health effects on workers' respiratory system, yet no proper biomarkers have been used to detect early pulmonary injury of RCFs-exposed workers. This study assessed the levels of two biomarkers that ...

Current State of Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease Imaging.

Radiology
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) diagnosis is complex, continuously evolving, and increasingly reliant on thin-section chest CT. Multidisciplinary discussion aided by a thorough radiologic review can achieve a high-confidence diagnosis of ILD in the m...

Machine learning-driven imaging data for early prediction of lung toxicity in breast cancer radiotherapy.

Scientific reports
One possible adverse effect of breast irradiation is the development of pulmonary fibrosis. The aim of this study was to determine whether planning CT scans can predict which patients are more likely to develop lung lesions after treatment. A retrosp...

From pixels to prognosis: unlocking the potential of deep learning in fibrotic lung disease imaging analysis.

The British journal of radiology
The licensing of antifibrotic therapy for fibrotic lung diseases, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), has created an urgent need for reliable biomarkers to predict disease progression and treatment response. Some patients experience stable...

Deep Learning Assessment of Progression of Emphysema and Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Abnormality.

American journal of respiratory and critical care medicine
Although studies have evaluated emphysema and fibrotic interstitial lung abnormality individually, less is known about their combined progression. To define clinically meaningful progression of fibrotic interstitial lung abnormality in smokers with...

Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Pulmonary Fibrosis Using Deep Learning and CT Images.

Investigative radiology
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to assess the performance of a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system (INTACT system) for the automatic classification of high-resolution computed tomography images into 4 radiological diagnostic categories a...
