Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis has emerged as a global threat. The aim of this work was to compare the CT findings primary multidrug-resistant and drug-sensitive in non-AIDS adults.From January 2012 February 2016, 89 patients with were retrospectively reviewed, consecutive drug sensitive TB no history anti-tuberculous chemotherapy from 2014 November enrolled control group. All seronegative for HIV. patients' demographic data locations, frequency patterns lung lesions on chest...
According to the World Health Organization, China is one of 22 countries with serious tuberculosis (TB) infections and 27 multidrug-resistant TB strains. Despite decline in overall population, healthcare workers (HCWs) are still at a high risk infection. Compared high-income countries, prevalence among HCWs higher low- middle-income countries. Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) becoming more popular due its superior sensitivity lower radiation dose. However, there have been no reports about...
Background Ventricular involvement in neurotuberculosis is rare. The literature regarding the characteristics of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ventricular tuberculosis very limited. Purpose To describe MRI and discuss medical treatment along with clinical outcome. Material Methods Ten patients (6 men, 4 women; average age, 39 years) were diagnosed during a period 3 years. Four had history pulmonary/pleural tuberculosis. features these reviewed retrospectively. Results On brain MRI, three...
Lung cancer, one of the leading causes cancer-related deaths, usually appears as solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) which are hard to diagnose using naked eye. In this paper, curvelet-based textural features and clinical parameters used with three prediction models [a multilevel model, a least absolute shrinkage selection operator (LASSO) regression method, support vector machine (SVM)] improve diagnosis benign malignant SPNs. Dimensionality reduction original was achieved principal component...
Abstract Background Although the incidence of co‐existent pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and lung cancer in China is increasing, risk factors related to its development are still poorly understood. We aimed investigate which clinical were associated with odds PTB (PTB‐lung cancer) cases a case‐control study. Method A total 125 PTB‐lung patients enrolled by Beijing Chest Hospital as case group between January 2012 December 2016. Age‐ sex‐matched PTB‐only (N = 125) cancer‐only selected control...
Objective To determine the value of contourlet textural features obtained from solitary pulmonary nodules in two dimensional CT images used diagnoses lung cancer. Materials and Methods A total 6,299 were acquired 336 patients, with 1,454 benign nodule 84 patients (50 male, 34 female) 4,845 malignant 252 (150 102 female). Further to this, nineteen patient information categories, which included seven demographic parameters twelve morphological features, also collected. was extract fourteen...
The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal puncture site computed tomography (CT)-guided transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy for diagnosis tuberculosis (TB) by comparison clinical and radiological characteristics TB patients stratified different histopathological results.We retrospectively analysed data clinically diagnosed with negative laboratory results between July 2016 June 2018. Biopsy specimens were obtained from Ziehl-Neelsen (Z-N) staining TB-DNA.For 356 patients,...
