A Novel Method for the Generation of Realistic Lung Nodules Visualized Under X-Ray Imaging.

Objective: Image-guided diagnosis and treatment of lung lesions is an active area of research. With the growing number of solutions proposed, there is also a growing need to establish a standard for the evaluation of these solutions. Thus, realistic phantom and preclinical environments must be established.

Integrated cardio-thoracic imaging curriculum for residents: Design, implementation, and analysis of test and evaluation results.

Unlabelled: As the field of cardiac imaging has demonstrated exceptional growth over the past several decades, radiology departments and residency programs have struggled to integrate cardiac imaging instruction into training curricula.

Purpose: To create an integrated cardio-thoracic teaching and lecture curriculum and resident rotation in accordance with AGGME and Society of Thoracic Radiology (STR) guidelines.

Materials And Methods: Consecutive PGY-2 to PGY-4 residents (n = 14) rotating through our Cardiothoracic Imaging (CTI) section from 1/1/2021 to 04/18/2022 were give pre- and post- rotation tests of knowledge and feedback evaluations.

Fleischner Society: Glossary of Terms for Thoracic Imaging.

Members of the Fleischner Society have compiled a glossary of terms for thoracic imaging that replaces previous glossaries published in 1984, 1996, and 2008, respectively. The impetus to update the previous version arose from multiple considerations. These include an awareness that new terms and concepts have emerged, others have become obsolete, and the usage of some terms has either changed or become inconsistent to a degree that warranted a new definition.

Trastuzumab Deruxtecan‒Related Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis: Computed Tomography Imaging Patterns to Guide Diagnosis and Management.

Purpose: Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody-drug conjugate approved for the treatment of several advanced cancers; however, severe or fatal interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis can occur. We characterized the computed tomography (CT) patterns of T-DXd‒related pneumonitis as a marker for its clinical severity.

Materials And Methods: Ninety patients with advanced cancers who developed T-DXd‒related pneumonitis in two completed single-arm clinical trials were included.
