Extent of lung involvemenet in patients with interstitial lung disease - assesssing the degree of lung parenchymal involvemenet with automated scoring: a pilot study
2018
Abstract
An integral part of diagnosing interstitial lung disease is computed tomography of the lung. The extent of lung involvement may be assessed with visual scoring systems either based on expertence of a radiologist or using automated sofware systems.
The aim of the study was to compare the Dutka/Vasakova scortin system with automated system Caliper Imgio pioneered at Mayo Clinic, Rochster, Minnesota.
