- Comparison of conventional chest x ray with a novel projection technique for ultra-low dose CT
CONCLUSION: Thoracic tomograms were found to be diagnostically superior to CXR for focal lung disease, at no increased radiation dose. The thoracic […]
- CT-guided Microcoil Pulmonary Nodule Localization prior to Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery: Diagnostic Utility and Recurrence-Free Survival
Background CT-guided microcoil localization has been shown to reduce the need for thoracotomy or video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) anatomic […]
- Translation of Knowledge to Practice-Improving Awareness in NSCLC Molecular Testing
CONCLUSIONS: Significant knowledge gaps exist among diagnostic specialists regarding molecular testing and targeted therapy in lung cancer. This […]
- CT-guided microcoil VATS resection of lung nodules: a single-centre experience and review of the literature
CONCLUSIONS: CT-guided microcoil insertion followed by VATS lobectomy is safe, with short operative times, short length of stay and 100% diagnosis of […]
- Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) in workers previously exposed to asbestos: detection of parenchymal lung disease
CONCLUSIONS: Low-dose CT could demonstrate parenchymal lung manifestations in this higher-risk asymptomatic group with prior exposure to asbestos in […]
- Chest low-dose computed tomography in neutropenic acute myeloid leukaemia patients
CONCLUSION: LDCT is a useful tool in the initial investigation of suspected pulmonary complication in neutropenic patients. This is supported by the […]
- Initial treatment strategies and outcomes for multifocal bronchioloalveolar carcinoma
CONCLUSION: Initial treatment choices and referral patterns for multifocal BAC were diverse and influenced by clinical selection, whereby patients […]
- Lung cancer screening using low-dose computed tomography in at-risk individuals: the Toronto experience
CONCLUSIONS: Data indicate that LDCT can identify small lung cancers in an at-risk population. The diagnostic algorithm results in few false-positive […]
- Imaging of lung transplantation: review
OBJECTIVE Lung transplantation is an established treatment for end-stage pulmonary disease. Complications of lung transplantation include airway […]
- Radiology resident interpretation of on-call CT pulmonary angiograms
CONCLUSIONS: Radiology residents provide a high level interpretation of on-call CTPA studies, achieving good concordance with the attending […]

- Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome in lung transplant recipients: can thin-section CT findings predict disease before its clinical appearance?
CONCLUSION: The value of the finding of air trapping before the clinical appearance and during the early stages of BOS is lower than has been […]
- Radiologic pattern of disease in patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome: the Toronto experience
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a transmissible febrile respiratory illness caused by a recently discovered coronavirus. Various patterns […]
- Fibrosis of the upper lobes: a newly identified late-onset complication after lung transplantation?
CONCLUSION: High-resolution CT findings suggestive of gradual progressive lung fibrosis, predominantly in the upper lobes with relative sparing of […]
- Fine needle aspiration of the solitary pulmonary nodule
Percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy is a well-established method of obtaining cytologic and histologic samples from a pulmonary nodule. Properly […]
