Background: Early detection and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are becoming important for improving the prognosis of individuals who smoke heavily. Despite the higher risk of COPD among individuals participating in lung cancer screening, many of these patients remain underdiagnosed.

Research Questions: How many participants in lung cancer screening have emphysema or airflow limitation? If spirometry is incorporated into the screening, how many additional patients with airflow limitation could be newly identified?

Study Design And Methods: The Ovid-MEDLINE and Embase databases were searched from inception to November 30, 2023.

Objectives: We investigated whether supine chest CT alone suffices for diagnosing ILAs, thereby reducing the need for prone chest CT.

Materials And Methods: Patients who underwent prone chest CT for suspected ILAs from January 2021 to July 2023, with matching supine CT within 1 year, were retrospectively evaluated. Five multinational thoracic radiologists independently rated ILA suspicion and fibrosis scores (1 to 5-point) and ILA extent (1-100%) using supine CT first, then combined supine-prone CT after a 1-month washout.

Article Synopsis
  • This study evaluated the CXR-Age model, which uses deep learning to estimate a person's "radiographic age" based on chest X-rays, as a predictor of mortality risk in a large group of asymptomatic Asian individuals aged 50-80.
  • Researchers analyzed data from nearly 37,000 individuals over a median of 11 years, finding that a higher CXR-Age correlated with increased risk for all-cause mortality, cardiovascular, lung cancer, and respiratory disease deaths.
  • The study concluded that the CXR-Age model adds significant prognostic value beyond traditional clinical factors, indicating its potential usefulness across diverse populations.

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.

Objectives: To develop and validate a super-resolution (SR) algorithm generating clinically feasible chest radiographs from 64-fold reduced data.

Methods: An SR convolutional neural network was trained to produce original-resolution images (output) from 64-fold reduced images (input) using 128 × 128 patches (n = 127 030). For validation, 112 radiographs-including those with pneumothorax (n = 17), nodules (n = 20), consolidations (n = 18), and ground-glass opacity (GGO; n = 16)-were collected.

Article Synopsis
  • A deep learning-based prognostic model (DLPM) was developed and validated to predict survival in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) using chest radiographs from multiple datasets.
  • The model demonstrated equal or superior performance compared to traditional forced vital capacity (FVC) measurements in predicting 3-year survival rates across different external test cohorts.
  • The modified gender-age-physiology index (GAP-CR), which incorporates the DLPM, also outperformed the original GAP index in predicting survival in most test cohorts, highlighting the model's clinical relevance.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess how well CT-defined visceral pleural invasion (CT-VPI) diagnoses and predicts outcomes in early-stage lung adenocarcinomas.
  • Involving 681 patients, the results showed that the diagnostic accuracy of five radiologists was similar to that of deep learning models, but there was noticeable variability in individual radiologists' performance, and their prognostic value was limited.
  • The analysis indicates that while CT-VPI could be useful for predicting outcomes in solid tumors, consistent interpretation among radiologists remains a challenge.
