Automatic identification of lung abnormalities in chest spiral CT scans
This research aims at developing a fully automatic ComputerAssisted Diagnosis (CAD) system for lung cancer screening using chest spiral CT scans. One thousand subjects are enrolled in a chest cancer screening program in Louisville, KY, USA, which aims at quantification of the effectiveness of low dose spiral CT scans for early diagnosis of lung cancer, and evaluating its possible impact on impr...

which needs further replication itself to increase the likelihood that the reported association is real. Nevertheless, these studies, as well as failures to replicate, should be published to evolve a full picture of a gene’s possible effects. Much can be learned from these findings and, in the end, they may be even more important for our understanding of genetics and disease mechanisms in compl...
متن کاملLung cancer screening with spiral CT: toward a working strategy.
Given that there is no validated test for early lung cancer detection, the current standard approach to lung cancer detection is to wait for signs or symptoms to develop. In that setting, newly detected lung cancer is generally rapidly fatal resulting in over 157,000 deaths annually. Sole dependence on tobacco control is an insufficient public health response to lung cancer, since most newly di...
متن کاملEvaluation of Distal Femoral Rotational Alignment with Spiral CT Scan before Total Knee Arthroplasty (A Study in Iranian Population)
Background: Evaluating the landmarks for rotation of the distal femur is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Although the posterior femoral condyle axis is a good landmark for surgeons, the surgical transepicondylar axis may be a better option with the help of preoperative CT scanning. The purpose of this study was to ascertain relationships among the axes’ guiding distal femur rotational ...
متن کاملImage quality and dose evaluation in spiral chest CT examinations of patients with lung carcinoma.
A study was undertaken to assess the quality of general chest CT examinations for indication of lung carcinoma according to the criteria proposed in the European Commission (EC) Guidelines, and to investigate their usefulness in the optimization of this practice. The criteria were evaluated for a sample of 100 examinations from five radiology departments in the Madrid area featuring single slic...
