High-resolution CT Findings of Diffuse Lung Disease : Review Article

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: spectrum of high-resolution CT findings.

OBJECTIVE Characteristic high-resolution CT (HRCT) findings of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) include reticulation, architectural distortion, and honeycombing involving mainly the lung periphery and the lower lobes. In 50% of IPF patients, HRCT is nonspecific. This article illustrates the HRCT findings of IPF correlating with the pathology. CONCLUSION The spectrum of HRCT manifestations ...

High-Resolution CT Findings of Re-Expansion Pulmonary Edema

OBJECTIVE To describe the high-resolution CT (HRCT) findings of re-expansion pulmonary edema (REPE) following a thoracentesis for a spontaneous pneumothorax. MATERIALS AND METHODS HRCT scans from 43 patients who developed REPE immediately after a thoracentesis for treatment of pneumothorax were retrospectively analyzed. The study group consisted of 41 men and two women with a mean age of 34 y...

Ocular pharmacokinetics of 0.45% ketorolac tromethamine

PURPOSE A new carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)-containing ophthalmic formulation of 0.45% ketorolac, pH 6.8 (Acuvail(®)) was recently developed for treatment of inflammation and pain after cataract surgery. This study compared pharmacokinetics of the new formulation with that of a prior formulation, 0.4% ketorolac, pH 7.4 (Acular LS(®)). METHODS Ketorolac formulations were administered bilaterall...

Ketorolac tromethamine: A nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic

The patient was a 37-year-old male, ASA II category, who underwent general anesthesia for a cholecystectomy. The drug is discussed in terms of preoperative, intraoperative, and immediate postoperative effects. During the preoperative phase, no effect was demonstrated. Intraoperatively, t...
