The Chrispin-Norman score in cystic fibrosis: doing away with the lateral view.
The Chrispin-Norman chest radiograph scoring (CNS) system is widely used to assess respiratory disease progression in cystic fibrosis (CF). Frontal and lateral chest radiographs were performed. The present authors developed a modified CNS, which obviates the need for the lateral film. This study compares the original and the current authors' modified scoring system. A total of 50 chest radiogra...

BACKGROUND Scoring systems for the chest radiograph in cystic fibrosis are used to compare patients and different treatment regimens, and to monitor respiratory disease in individual patients. The Northern chest radiograph score was designed to allow one person to assess the radiological features of lung involvement in cystic fibrosis in as simple, rapid and equally reproducible manner as the e...
متن کامل[Cystic fibrosis in adults: inter- and intraobserver agreement for the Brasfield and Chrispin-Norman chest radiography scoring systems and correlation with clinical data and spirometry].
OBJECTIVE Most chest radiography scoring systems for patients with cystic fibrosis have been developed for children but are also used for adults. Our aim was to evaluate the intra- and interobserver variability of 2 radiographic scoring systems in adults with cystic fibrosis and to assess the correlation of these systems with clinical and spirometric parameters.
