Deep learning parametric response mapping from inspiratory chest CT scans: a new approach for small airway disease screening

Jiancheng Yang, Zhiye Wang, Jun Lu, Zhigang Li, Lin Qi, Ming Li, Bo Du, Yuxuan Sun, Ziyi Liu

Objectives Parametric response mapping (PRM) enables the evaluation of small airway disease (SAD) at the voxel level, but requires both inspiratory and expiratory chest CT scans. We hypothesize that deep learning PRM from inspiratory chest CT scans can eff ...

Point-of-care lung ultrasonography for early identification of mild COVID-19: a prospective cohort of outpatients in a Swiss screening center

Mary-Anne Hartley, Jean-Baptiste Francis Marie Juliette Cordonnier, Jean-Yves Meuwly, Luca Bosso, Tanguy Espejo, Siméon Schaad

Objectives Early identification of SARS-CoV-2 infection is important to guide quarantine and reduce transmission. This study evaluates the diagnostic performance of lung ultrasound (LUS), an affordable, consumable-free point-of-care tool, for COVID-19 scre ...

Tomographic in vivo microscopy for the study of lung physiology at the alveolar level

Goran Lovric, Marco Stampanoni

Lungs represent the essential part of the mammalian respiratory system, which is reflected in the fact that lung failure still is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Establishing the connection between macroscopic observations o ...

Interactions between cancer stem cells and their niche govern metastatic colonization

Albert Santamaria Martinez, Ilaria Malanchi, Hans-Anton Lehr

Metastatic growth in distant organs is the major cause of cancer mortality. The development of metastasis is a multistage process with several rate-limiting steps. Although dissemination of tumour cells seems to be an early and frequent event, the successf ...

RC time constant of single lung equals that of both lungs together: a study in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Nico Westerhof

The product of resistance, R, and compliance, C (RC time), of the entire pulmonary circulation is constant. It is unknown if this constancy holds for individual lungs. We determined R and C in individual lungs in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertensi ...

Discovery of inhibitors that elucidate the role of UCH-L1 activity in the H1299 lung cancer cell line

Hilal Lashuel

Neuronal ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase (UCH-L1) has been linked to Parkinson's disease (PD), the progression of certain nonneuronal tumors, and neuropathic pain. Certain lung tumor-derived cell lines express UCH-L1 but it is not expressed in normal lung t ...

Perfluorocarbon induced alterations in pulmonary mechanics

Melody Swartz

Perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds induce pulmonary hyperinflation and respiratory distress in some animals following intravenous administration. This study was designed to quantify the effects of two PFC emulsions on lung volumes and compliance and to identi ...

Influence of intravenous perfluorocarbon administration on the dynamic behavior of lung surfactant

Melody Swartz

Intravenous administration of perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds can lead to pulmonary hyperinflation and respiratory distress in some mammals. This study was designed to quantify the effects of two PFC emulsions on the dynamic behavior of lung surfactant and ...
