A New high resolution computed tomography scoring system for pulmonary fibrosis, pleural disease, and emphysema in patients with asbestos related disease / N. Al Jarad... [et al.]
Sumario: In this study we describe an HRCT (high resolution computed tomographic) scans analogous to the International Labour Office (ILO) method for plain chest radiografia assessment of pleural disease, emphysema and parenchymal fibrosis. The scoring system is compared with the ILO scoring system on plain radiographs with an extension to include emphysema. Interobserver and intraobserver agreement on computed tomography and chest radiographic scores are assessed and scores are correlated with lung function
