Computed tomographic (CT) lung density measurements were prospectively correlated with
pulmonary haemodynamic data in 33 patients with chronic heart disease. Cardiac …

The computed tomography (CT) number within the region of interest (ROI) was used as a
parameter to assess lung density in patients with congestive heart failure. Thirty-eight …

In addition to providing useful visual information, computed tomography (CT) can also be
used for estimating tissue density. In the case of the lung, a structure exhibiting a wide …

We studied 80 subjects (63 M, 17 F; 23-82 yrs) and related lung computerized tomography
(CT) density with age, height, spirometry, lung volumes, diffusing capacity and arterial blood …

The aim of this study was to assess the reproducibility of quantitative, spirometrically gated
computed tomographic (CT) lung densitometry at defined levels of inspiration in hospitalized …

Computed tomography (CT) of the lung in normal subjects and patients with congestive
heart failure was performed in the supine position with deep inspiration to obtain pulmonary …

Pulmonary congestion and pulmonary water distribution of lung fields were evaluated by
computed tomography (CT) in 31 patients with congestive heart failure and 19 normal …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES.: Pulmonary hypertension may complicate systemic
sclerosis in the absence of fibrosing alveolitis. Abnormal pulmonary perfusion is known to …

SUMMARY CT densitometry of the lung is a sensitive and readily available noninvasive
method for determining regional and global lung density. Automated computer analysis …

Objective To determine the utility of CT-determined main pulmonary artery diameter (MPAD)
