Detectability of pulmonary ossifications in fibrotic lung on ultra-high-resolution CT using 2048 matrix size and 0.25-mm slice thickness
Abstract To investigate the prevalence of nodular pulmonary ossifications (POs) in patients with honeycombing on ultra-high-resolution CT (UHRCT) and to compare the detectability of nodular POs between images reconstructed using the ultra-high-resolution setting (UHR-setting) and those using the con...

Twenty patients with honeycombing in the lung were evaluated retrospectively. All patients underwent non-contrast-enhanced UHRCT.

Two chest radiologists independently recorded the number of nodular POs (< 4 mm diameter) in each lung lobes.

The maximum CT values of the POs were measured and compared between the two settings. PO categories were significantly higher with UHR-setting than with C-setting (p < 0.001).
