Background The use of quantitative CT analysis in children is limited by lack of normal
values of lung parenchymal attenuation. These characteristics are important because …

Background Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common, heterogeneous disease in
premature infants. We hypothesized that quantitative CT techniques could assess lung …

With the rapid evolution of the multidetector row CT technique, quantitative CT has started to
be used in clinical studies for revealing a heterogeneous entity of airflow limitation in chronic …

Background: There is a lack of information on normal inspiratory and expiratory CT lung
density in infants. Objective: To describe normal regional CT lung density at end inspiratory …

Thin-section or high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is used in children for the
investigation of disorders such as airway disease and diffuse interstitial lung disease …

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and validate dynamic volume calculation
by respiratory-gated multislice computed tomography (CT) in small neonatal animals …

Background Different iterative reconstruction techniques are available for use in pediatric
computed tomography (CT), but these techniques have not been systematically evaluated in …

Purpose: To determine the quantitative relationship between image quality and radiologist
performance in detecting small lung nodules in pediatric CT. Methods: The study included …

Pulmonary involvement in systemic diseases is common, but the radiographic appearance
of early-stage pulmonary changes is often subtle. Computed tomography (CT) has higher …

OBJECTIVE: Computed tomography is commonly used in the diagnosis of pediatric lung
disease. Although the radiation is not negligible, the yield has never been studied …
