Lung Clearance Index and HRCT are complementary markers of lung abnormalities in young children with CF.

RATIONALE High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is a more sensitive tool for detecting early cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease than either spirometry or plain radiography, but its relationship to other measures of lung function has not been established in young children. OBJECTIVES (1) To assess whether the lung clearance index (LCI) derived from multiple breath inert-gas washout (MBW) i...

HRCT diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal lung disease: inter-observer variation.

BACKGROUND This study was designed to measure inter-observer variation between thoracic radiologists in the diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) using high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and to identify areas of difficulty where expertise, in the form of national panels, would be of particular value. METHODS HRCT images of 131 patients with DPLD (from a tertiary referra...

A practical approach to cystic lung disease on HRCT

A lung cyst is defined as a round parenchymal lucency or area of low attenuation with a thin wall. They are not uncommon findings on high-resolution (HR) thoracic computed tomography (CT) and when identified, they require explanation. The differential diagnosis for diseases characterised by lung cysts is broad ranging from isolated chest disorders to rare multisystem diseases. This article prov...
