Synthesizing High-Resolution Dual-Energy Radiographs from Coronary Artery Calcium CT Images.

Generating realistic radiographs from CT is mainly limited by the native spatial resolution of the latter. Here we present a general approach for synthesizing high-resolution digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) from an arbitrary resolution CT volume. Our approach is based on an upsampling framework where tissues of interest are first segmented from the original CT volume and then upsampled individually to the desired voxelization (here ~1 mm → 0.

A unique case of hepatopulmonary fusion in congenital diaphragmatic hernia causing pulmonary hypoplasia in a newborn: A case report study.

Introduction And Significance: Hepatopulmonary fusion is a rare congenital malformation associated with right-sided diaphragmatic hernia. Often diagnosed during surgery, it carries a high mortality rate.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a full-term infant who exhibited shortness of breath from birth.

Giant mesenteric cysts: A rare case series with clinical insights.

Introduction And Significance: Mesenteric cysts are rare, non-cancerous tumors found mainly in children. The symptoms can vary depending on the size and location of the cyst. While the exact cause is unknown, complete surgical removal is the main and most effective treatment for mesenteric cysts.

Recurrent pneumonia in a 2-year-old: A rare case of congenital lobar emphysema.

Introduction And Significance: Emphysema is an uncommon but important condition that often appears in the neonatal period. Diagnosis is based on CT, which identifies the affected lung lobe, which is treated with complete surgical resection.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a child who had been suffering for about a year from recurrent respiratory infections without arriving at a clear and correct diagnosis.
