Background To evaluate the effectiveness of the computed tomographic (CT) volumetric
analysis in postoperative lung function assessment and the predicting value for …

Objectives The study objectives were to assess the accuracy of volumetric computed
tomography to predict postoperative lung function in patients with lung cancer in relation to …

Background Functional lung volume (FLV) obtained from computed tomography images was
a breakthrough for lung imaging and functional assessment. We compared the accuracy of …

Purpose It is important to accurately predict the patient's postoperative pulmonary function.
The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of predictions of the postoperative …

Background At present, the therapy for patients with lung cancer that achieves a high rate of
cure is surgical resection at an early stage of the disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate …

This study was aimed to evaluate a morphology-based approach for prediction of
postoperative forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) after lung resection from …

OBJECTIVES We compared the computed tomographic (CT) volumetric analysis and
anatomical segment counting (ASC) for predicting postoperative forced expiratory volume in …

Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the pulmonary reserve of the patients via
preoperative quantitative computerized tomography (CT) and to determine if these …

Purpose To compare the predictabilities of postoperative pulmonary function after lobectomy
for primary lung cancer among counting method, effective lobar volume, and lobar …

Objective: The prediction of pulmonary functional reserve is mandatory in therapeutic
decision-making for patients with resectable lung cancer, especially those with underlying …
