In patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), low-dose CT achieved higher sensitivity than chest x-ray for detecting lung metastases and second primary lung cancer, but patients ...

Chest CT revealed persistent lung abnormalities in patients two years after COVID-19, according to a study published in Radiology. This is the first research paper with two-year follow-up data on ...

Dr George Owiti, a radiographer at Kericho County Hospital examines the Chest CT results of a patient admitted to the hospital. [James Wanzala, Standard] Despite recent breakthroughs that have ...

Lung cancer is classified into non-small cell and small cell types, influencing treatment strategies and prognosis. Advances in targeted therapies, immunotherapy, and minimally invasive surgeries have ...

At similar radiation doses, ultra-low-dose CT (ULDCT) achieved superior image quality using AI-enhanced iterative reconstruction than chest x-rays for assessing cystic fibrosis-related lung disease in ...

Lung cancer is the No. 1 cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Screening with low dose computed tomography (called low dose CT or LDCT) can save lives for people at high risk for this ...

A CT scan of healthy lungs looks typical in size with no inflammation, allowing the diaphragm to dome. Lungs with emphysema can look overinflated, with muscle loss, making the diaphragm misshapen. The ...

The paper synthesizes the global lung cancer landscape, imaging referral guidelines (including resource-stratified ones), the reliance of TNM staging upon imaging, relevant multinational health ...

In a prospective imaging study of 200 adults with lung cancer, photon-counting CT reduced radiation exposure, yielded fewer adverse reactions and provided higher image quality and better detection of ...

Lung nodules are common and usually develop after an injury or infection. However, in a small number of cases, they may be a sign of lung cancer. Lung nodules can vary in size and shape. They can ...
