To evaluate impaired respiratory mechanics in pulmonary emphysema, dynamic breathing
magnetic resonance imaging (BMRI) was acquired with fast‐gradient echo pulse sequences …

Objective The purpose is to develop and evaluate the ability of the computer-aided diagnosis
(CAD) methods that apply texture analysis and pattern classification to differentiate …

This paper describes the recent advances in technical and analytical methods in pulmonary
ventilation SPECT studies, including a respiratory-gated image acquisition of Technetium-…

Purpose: Because both emphysema and lung cancer can arise from biological damage
caused by cigarette smoking, we investigated if the development of emphysema is associated …

Purpose To investigate the added value of lung perfused blood volume (LPBV) using dual-energy
CT for the evaluation of intrapulmonary clot (IPC) in patients suspected of having …

Background. Accurate localization of the breast sentinel lymph node (SLN) can be challenging
as a minimally invasive approach to the treatment of early-stage breast cancer. We tested …

Suga K, Ogasawara N, Yuan Y, et al. Visualization of breast lymphatic pathways with an
indirect computed tomography lymphography using a nonionic monometric contrast medium …

Purpose The aim of the study was to provide preliminary validation of the utility of co-registered
respiratory-gated ventilation/perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography−…

BACKGROUND: The sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) technique is established in the
treatment of breast cancer. The current technique of mapping the SLN with blue dye or …

PURPOSE: To evaluate sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping with interstitial computed
tomographic (CT) lymphography with small volumes of iopamidol for direction of SLN biopsy in …
