2. Nuclear Medicine Methods for Assessment of Chronic Chagas Heart Disease
Abstract Several different imaging methods can be used to evaluate patients with Chagas heart disease (CHD) for diagnostic and prognostic purposes, including plain chest radiography; echocardiography; myocardial perfusion scintigraphy, for detection of ischemia and fibrosis; radionuclide gated-angiography, for evaluation of biventricular function; 123I-MIBG

3. Aortic Arch Calcification on Routine Chest Radiography is Strongly and Independently Associated with Non-Dipper Blood Pressure Pattern
Resumo Fundamento: A pressão arterial não-dipper é uma das causas mais importantes de lesão de órgão-alvo da hipertensão e de eventos cardiovasculares futuros. Atualmente, não há uma ferramenta prática para prever o padrão não-dipper de pressão arterial. Objetivos: O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a relação entre a calcificação no ar

5. A lung image reconstruction from computed radiography images as a tool to tuberculosis treatment control
Abstract Background: Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious lung disease with high worldwide incidence that severely compromises the quality of life in affected individuals. Clinical tests are currently employed to monitor pulmonary status and treatment progression. The present study aimed to apply a three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction method base

6. Sequestro pulmonar e tratamento endovascular: um relato de caso
Resumo O sequestro pulmonar refere-se à anomalia congênita definida por massa de parênquima pulmonar não funcionante. É dividido pela existência de envoltório pleural próprio em intralobar, representando cerca de 75% dos casos, ou extralobar, responsável pelos 25% restantes. O diagnóstico é feito através de radiografia e confirmado com tomografi

7. Robust pulmonary segmentation for chest radiography, combining enhancement, adaptive morphology and innovative active contours
Abstract Introduction Statistical data reveal that approximately 140 million radiological exams are performed annually in Brazil. These exams are designed to detect and to analyze fractures, caused by different types of trauma; as well as, to diagnose pathologies such as pulmonary diseases. For better visualization of those lesions or abnormalities, method

9. Septic pulmonary embolism caused by a Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess: clinical characteristics, imaging findings, and clinical courses
OBJECTIVES: Septic pulmonary embolism caused by a Klebsiella (K.) pneumoniae liver abscess is rare but can cause considerable morbidity and mortality. However, clinical information regarding this condition is limited. This study was conducted to elucidate the full disease spectrum to improve its diagnosis and treatment. METHOD: We reviewed the clinical cha

10. Dilated cardiomyopathy and hypothyroidism associated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin treatment for chronic hepatitis C: case report and literature review
Pegylated interferon alpha (Peg IFN-α) in combination with ribavirin is the backbone of treatment in chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Cardiotoxicity due to interferon therapy is rare. The most frequent cardiovascular complications are arrhythmias and ischemic manifestations. Cardiomyopathy is extremely rare but can be life threatening. We present the case of a 41

11. Classificação da doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica pela radiografia do tórax
Objective Quantitative analysis of chest radiographs of patients with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) determining if the data obtained from such radiographic images could classify such individuals according to the presence or absence of disease. Materials and Methods For such a purpose, three groups of chest radiographic images were

12. Research on tuberculosis: 75 years of IBIT contributions
In 1937, the foundation year of the Brazilian Institute for Tuberculosis Research, three questions persisted in the researchers' mind: "What is the real value of BCG? How to solve the problem of the chest register of large communities? When will we have a specific drug for the treatment of tuberculosis?"; Along with this line of thought, the author presents
