Belém,Luciana Camara; Souza,Carolina A.; Souza Jr.,Arthur Soares; Escuissato,Dante Luiz; Hochhegger,Bruno; Nobre,Luiz Felipe; Rodrigues,Rosana SouzaAbstract Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings in patients diagnosed with metastatic pulmonary calcification (MPC). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the HRCT findings from 23 cases of MPC [14 men, 9 women; mean age, 54.3 (range, 26-89) years]. The patients were examined between 2000 and 2014 in nine tertiary hospitals in Brazil...

Faria,Igor Murad; Zanetti,Gláucia; Barreto,Miriam Menna; Rodrigues,Rosana Souza; Araujo-Neto,Cesar Augusto; Silva,Jorge Luiz Pereira eOBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of HRCT findings and their distribution in the lung parenchyma of patients with organizing pneumonia. METHODS: This was a retrospective review of the HRCT scans of 36 adult patients (26 females and 10 males) with biopsy-proven organizing pneumonia. The patients were between 19 and 82 years of age (mean age, 56.2 years). The HRCT images were evaluated by two independent obse...
Cocaine-induced pulmonary changes: HRCT findings
Almeida,Renata Rocha de; Zanetti,Gláucia; Souza Jr.,Arthur Soares; Souza,Luciana Soares de; Silva,Jorge Luiz Pereira e; Escuissato,Dante LuizAbstractObjective: To evaluate HRCT scans of the chest in 22 patients with cocaine-induced pulmonary disease.Methods: We included patients between 19 and 52 years of age. The HRCT scans were evaluated by two radiologists independently, discordant results being resolved by consensus. The inclusion criterion was an HRCT scan showing abnormalities that were temporally related to cocaine use, with no other apparent...
