Objective. It is difficult to acquire a chest X-ray of a crying infant at maximum inspiration. A computer program was developed for technician training. Method. Video clips of 3 babies were used and the moment of deepest inspiration was determined in the single-frame view. 12 technicians simulated chest radiographs at normal video speed by pushing a button. The computer program stopped the vide...

Even after vigorous attempts to identify the cause of it in almost 30% of the cases no definite etiology can be found. With underlying abnormality etiological analysis gets easier, but time and again, hemoptysis patients may have completely normal X ray chest. The common causes of hemoptysis in practice are Tuberculosis (endobronchial), CA lung, tracheitis, bronchitis, bronchiectasis, lung infa...

It is considered that annual chest x-ray (CXR) examination can be restricted to workers by age; however, adequate epidemiological evidence is needed regarding the difference in the effectiveness of CXR examination between younger and older age groups. This study attempted to estimate the prevalence of latent abnormalities (P) in the lung and the false negative rate (F) and false positive rate (...

DESIGN The staging workup of 1032 consecutive asymptomatic patients with localized melanoma was retrospectively reviewed via database chart review. SETTING Regional melanoma referral center in an academic medical center. PATIENTS The melanoma...

<span lang="EN-US">One reliable way of detecting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is using a chest x-ray image due to its complications in the lung parenchyma. This paper proposes solution for COVID-19 detection images based on convolutional neural network (CNN). CNN-based developed modified InceptionV3 as backbone architecture. Self-attention layers are inserted modify such that numbe...
