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.
