Emission computed tomography has achieved considerable credibility in thallium-201 cardiac imaging and in brain imaging studies. To date the procedure has had only limited application in the study of other organs. In the present study traditional perfusion lung scans were compared with horizontal, s

Twenty patients with known metastatic cancer or high-risk primary cancer developed new lesions on Tc 99m bone scans and had normal plain radiographs. Spinal computed tomography (CT) was performed on all new bone-scan-positive lesions in minimal examination time. Fifteen patients had extensive metast
Computed tomography-guided percutaneous lung biopsy is a well-recognized procedure for obtaining tissue for diagnosis in adults with interstitial lung diseases. Recently this methodology has been extended to pediatric practice. We have further refined this technique by employing high-resolution comp
Noise is one of the major problems that hinder an effective texture analysis of disease in medical images, which may cause variability in the reported diagnosis. In this paper seven texture measurement methods (two wavelet, two model and three statistical based) were applied to investigate their sus
