Assessing Public Interest in Mammography, Computed Tomography Lung Cancer Screening, and Computed Tomography Colonography Screening Examinations Using Internet Search Data: Cross-Sectional Study

Assessing Public Interest in Mammography, Computed Tomography Lung Cancer Screening, and Computed Tomography Colonography Screening Examinations Using Internet Search Data: Cross-Sectional Study

Noninvasive imaging, such as mammography (MG), low-dose computed tomography (CT) for lung cancer screening (LCS), and CT colonography (CTC), plays important roles in the early detection of the most common cancer types and has demonstrated efficacy in reducing cancer-related and all-cause mortality rates [2,3].

Using Natural Language Processing (GPT-4) for Computed Tomography Image Analysis of Cerebral Hemorrhages in Radiology: Retrospective Analysis

Using Natural Language Processing (GPT-4) for Computed Tomography Image Analysis of Cerebral Hemorrhages in Radiology: Retrospective Analysis

As shown in Figure 1, raw CT images of different types of cerebral hemorrhages were collected between January and September 2023 from the radiology database of Ren Ji Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Since GPT-4 cannot recognize continuous CT images, we first preprocessed the CT images. We chose the horizontal cranial CT image with the largest volume of hemorrhage in the brain window (window width: 90, window level: 35) as the representative image.

Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study

Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study

Recently, a computed tomography (CT) scan estimation became a valid measure of standing WC [4,5]. This method is truly valuable in retrospective studies, where it can be difficult to obtain such measurements. Moreover, conventional WC assessment using a measurement tape can be challenging in patients with intellectual or motor disabilities. However, for a radiologist, this method may require time and training.

Authors’ Response to Peer Reviews of “Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study”

Authors’ Response to Peer Reviews of “Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study”

Response: Yes, indeed calculating the circumference using CT scan images has already been validated through many papers; however, what our study [2] is trying to do is create a simple and easy tool to retrospectively evaluate the WC using images from CTs, even real images from existing CT radio film papers (with a scale on it).

Peer Review of “Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study”

Peer Review of “Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study”

Although the manuscript makes a sound plausibility argument for the use of a smartphone app to determine WC from an existing computed tomography (CT) scan, it offers little rationale for using a pretreatment CT scan in preference to a conventional measurement with a tape measure or equivalent, especially as that measurement modality is taken as the comparison standard.  1. The authors admit that their conclusion is based on a very small sample of patients.

Peer Review of “Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study”

Peer Review of “Predicting Waist Circumference From a Single Computed Tomography Image Using a Mobile App (Measure It): Development and Evaluation Study”

The authors created a mobile app that predicts waist circumference (WC) from computed tomography (CT) images [1]. After creating the app, the authors conducted a preliminary study involving 20 patients. The results showed that the developed app can predict WC from CT images with high accuracy. Though the paper showed some promising results, the authors still need to clarify a few important points. I hope the authors would be happy to clarify those points.  1.

Extracting Clinical Information From Japanese Radiology Reports Using a 2-Stage Deep Learning Approach: Algorithm Development and Validation

Extracting Clinical Information From Japanese Radiology Reports Using a 2-Stage Deep Learning Approach: Algorithm Development and Validation

Second, a data set was created using in-house CT reports annotated by medical experts. Third, state-of-the-art deep learning models were trained and evaluated to extract the clinical entities and relations. The entire performance of our 2-stage system was also evaluated. Finally, we evaluated the coverage of the clinical information in the CT reports using our information model. The development of the information model was already reported in our previous study [27].

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Clinical Findings in Medical Imaging Exams in a Nationwide Israeli Health Organization: Observational Study

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Clinical Findings in Medical Imaging Exams in a Nationwide Israeli Health Organization: Observational Study

CT and MR exams were classified as “finding” if the radiologist entered one of the following options: “abnormal finding,” “urgent finding-24 hours,” “life-threatening finding.” Alternatively, CT and MR exams were labeled “no finding” if the radiologist entered “no finding” or “standard reporting that is not special.” The information on CT and MR exams also specified the organ system that was examined.

The Reconstruction of Human Fingerprints From High-Resolution Computed Tomography Data: Feasibility Study and Associated Ethical Issues

The Reconstruction of Human Fingerprints From High-Resolution Computed Tomography Data: Feasibility Study and Associated Ethical Issues

Volumetric imaging with modalities like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or x-ray computed tomography (CT) has been a valuable tool in many areas of clinical, preclinical, and basic research. Image files are data rich, often with metadata containing (or linked to) both personal and sensitive data like the name of the participant or diagnoses.
