Chinese translation Background: Osteoporosis is a prevalent but underdiagnosed condition. Objective: To evaluate computed tomography (CT)–derived bone mineral density (BMD) assessment compared with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measures for identifying osteoporosis by using CT scans performed other clinical indications. Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Single academic health center. Patients: 1867 adults undergoing and DXA (n = 2067 pairs) within 6-month period over 10 years....
Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility lumbar spine attenuation measurement for bone mineral density (BMD) assessment at screening computed tomographic colonography (CTC) using central dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as reference standard. Two-hundred and fifty-two adults (240 women 12 men; mean age 58.9 years) underwent CTC DXA BMD within 2 months (mean interval 25.0 days). lowest T-score between hip served standard, with low defined per World Health...
We derive and test a CT-based biological age model for predicting longevity, using an automated pipeline of explainable AI algorithms that quantifies skeletal muscle, abdominal fat, aortic calcification, bone density, solid organs. apply these tools to CT scans from 123,281 adults (mean age, 53.6 years; 47% women; median follow-up, 5.3 years). The final weighted biomarker selection was based on the index prediction accuracy. significantly outperforms standard demographic data longevity (IPA...
Use of preoperative computed tomography for suspected acute appendicitis has dramatically increased since the introduction multidetector CT (MDCT) scanners.To evaluate diagnostic performance MDCT in adults.Analysis findings and clinical outcomes consecutive adults referred from January 2000 to December 2009.Single academic medical center United States.2871 adults.Interpretation nonfocused abdominopelvic scans by radiologists who were aware study indication.

To retrospectively assess the prevalence and clinical outcomes of unreported vertebral compression fractures at abdominal computed tomography (CT).This HIPAA-compliant study had institutional review board approval; need for informed consent was waived this retrospective analysis. A total 2041 consecutive adult patients (1640 women, 401 men; age range, 19-94 years) underwent both multidetector CT dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) within 6 months each other between 2000 2007, before...
The purpose of this study is to analyze the attenuation values pathologically proven renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) on unenhanced CT and determine range wherein malignancy should be considered.A retrospective review was performed 189 consecutive patients with 193 RCCs 1 cm or larger CT. For each RCC, were assessed throughout tumor by continuous sampling a 25-100-mm(2) region interest (ROI), avoiding foci calcification peritumoral volume averaging. lowest highest ROI per lesion recorded. Each...
Prior research indicates CT colonography (CTC) would be a cost-effective colorectal cancer (CRC) screening test if widespread availability were to increase overall CRC adherence rates. The primary aims of this multicenter study evaluate patient experience and satisfaction with CTC compare preference against colonoscopy.

To assess alternative diagnoses in adults undergoing computed tomography (CT) for suspected acute appendicitis routine clinical practice.This retrospective study was HIPAA compliant and institutional review board approved; informed consent waived. A total of 1571 consecutive were referred from emergency department or urgent care settings evaluation at a single academic medical center January 2006 to December 2009. Diagnoses given by board-certified radiologists nonfocused abdominopelvic CT...
The CT Colonography Reporting and Data System (C-RADS) is a well-recognized standard for reporting findings at colonography (CTC). However, few data on benchmark values clinical performance have been published to date, especially screening. purpose of this study was establish baseline C-RADS CTC screening.From 2005 2011, 6769 asymptomatic adults (3110 men 3659 women) 50-79 years old (mean [± SD] age, 56.7 ± 6.1 years) were enrolled first-time screening single center. results prospectively...
Purpose To report the prevalence and characteristics of serrated polyps identified in a large, average-risk population undergoing screening computed tomographic (CT) colonography. Materials Methods This HIPAA-compliant retrospective study was approved by institutional review board University Wisconsin School Medicine Public Health. The need for informed consent waived. Nine thousand six hundred examinations from 8289 patients were enrolled single-institution CT colonography-based program...

Objective and design The goal of the study was to determine whether mutational profile early colorectal polyps correlated with growth behaviour. small (6–9 mm) that were first identified during routine screening patients monitored over time by interval imaging CT colonography. Mutations in these lesions known rates targeted next-generation sequencing. timing events estimated using computer modelling statistical inference considering several parameters including allele frequency fitness....
Background The natural history of colorectal polyps is not well characterized due to clinical standards care and other practical constraints limiting in vivo longitudinal surveillance. Established CT colonography (CTC) screening protocols allow surveillance small (6–9 mm) polyps. Purpose To assess the followed with CTC a program, histopathologic correlation for resected Materials Methods In this retrospective study, was used longitudinally monitor asymptomatic adult patients from April 1,...
