Silikozis Hastalığı Tanısında Toraks Ultrasonu ve Görüntü işlemi Yöntemi Kullanılması

Abstract:
 The diagnosis of Silicosis Disease is based on regular follow-up, including physical examination, anamnesis and imaging methods, chest radiography high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) which are the main modalities shaped by universal guidelines. Due to its advantages such as rapid results, non-invasiveness, less cost procedure radiation safety, thoracic ultrasound an method that can be utilized in lung consolidation alveolar-interstitial diseases preferred progressively.
 Aims:
 may accelerate diagnostic process, with unbiased measurements, contribute control disease progression providing early for patients silicosis. 
 Methods: We enrolled 34 silicosis who had 1/0 or more involvement according ILO Pneumoconiosis reading score age-matched 16 healthy volunteers. Then, pleural thickness, diaphragmatic plaque, B line evaluated number hyperechoic nodules obtained from image processing ImageJ Software. Results :
 There were no lines any study groups. Moreover, thicknesses not different between groups.
 Conclusion
 It was accomplished convert nodular structures thorax into visible graphics method, apart a few exceptional cases
