Predictive value of lung ultrasound score in weaning from mechanical ventilation in neonatal respiratory distress syndrome
Chest Imaging 4 min.
With the development of perinatal medicine, the survival rate of premature infants is increasing. Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is one of the most common causes of neonatal respiratory failure and neonatal death, especially in premature infants [1]. It is reported that the incidence of...
Diagnostic accuracy of multi-organ point-of-care ultrasound for pulmonary embolism in critically ill patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Chest Imaging 4 min.
The clinical presentation of acute pulmonary embolism (PE) can range from mild symptoms to severe shock, cardiac arrest and even death [1, 2–3]. Common symptoms include sudden onset dyspnea, chest pain, syncope, and hemoptysis, with dyspnea being the most frequently reported symptom, occurring...
Smart contours: deep learning-driven internal gross tumor volume delineation in non-small cell lung cancer using 4D CT maximum and average intensity projections
Chest Imaging 5 min.
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide [1, 2], with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for approximately 85% of all cancer cases [3]. Radiation therapy is a cornerstone in lung cancer management [4, 5] and involves delivering high-dose radiation to malignant...
Prediction of radiosensitivity in non-small cell lung cancer based on computed tomography and tumor genomics: a multiple real world cohort study
Chest Imaging 6 min.
Radiotherapy can be applied to various stages of non-small cell lung cancer treatment, but it has been found in clinical practice that not all patients can benefit from it. The varying degrees of radiation sensitivity in lung cancer limit the efficacy of radiotherapy treatment [1]. While tumor radiation...
