Comparison of dark-field chest radiography and CT for the assessment of COVID-19 pneumonia.
Front Radiol
January 2025
Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, School of Medicine & Klinikum Rechts der Isar, Technical University of Munich, Munich, Germany.
Background: Dark-field chest radiography allows the assessment of the structural integrity of the alveoli by exploiting the wave properties of x-rays.
Purpose: To compare the qualitative and quantitative features of dark-field chest radiography in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia with conventional CT imaging.
Materials And Methods: In this prospective study conducted from May 2020 to December 2020, patients aged at least 18 years who underwent chest CT for clinically suspected COVID-19 infection were screened for participation.
Comparison of X-ray and CT Images of COVID-19 Caused by the Wild-Type and Alpha-Variant SARS-CoV-2.

Division of Infection Control and Prevention, University of Fukui Hospital, Fukui, JPN.
Introduction This study aimed to determine the characteristics of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia caused by the wild type and the alpha variant in patients. This study included patients with COVID-19 admitted to Fukui General Hospital between October 31, 2020, and April 30, 2021. Methods Pneumonia occurrence rate, chest X-ray, and computed tomography (CT) findings were evaluated by two radiologists.

Department of Medical Physics, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kindai University, Osakasayama, Osaka, Japan.
Background: Management of respiratory motion during radiation therapy is essential for accurate dose delivery and minimizing the risk to organs. In diagnostic imaging, respiratory monitoring is required for confirmation of breath-hold and four-dimensional computed tomography (CT) reconstruction. Although respiratory monitoring systems are widely used in radiation therapy, they are not often used for diagnostic imaging, where they could improve image quality.

Methods: We present a case of a 52-year-old male with PLCH associated with heavy cannabis use.
Assessing the Image Quality of Digitally Reconstructed Radiographs from Chest CT.
J Imaging Inform Med
January 2025
Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC), Leiden, the Netherlands.
Rising computed tomography (CT) workloads require more efficient image interpretation methods. Digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs), generated from CT data, may enhance workflow efficiency by enabling faster radiological assessments. Various techniques exist for generating DRRs.
