Evaluation of respiratory bronchiolitis nodules with maximum intensity projection images.
Respiratory bronchiolitis is a disease associated with heavy smoking. Computed tomography in this disease often shows symmetrical and bilaterally ill-defined circumscribed centriacinar micronodular involvement in the upper-middle lobes. The maximum intensity projection method is a kind of image processing method and provides a better evaluation of nodules and vascular structures. Our study aimed to show whether maximum intensity projection images increase the diagnostic accuracy in the detection of micronodules in respiratory bronchiolitis. ⋯ Maximum intensity projection images in respiratory bronchiolitis increase the detectability of micronodules independently of the experience of the radiologist.
