  • Title: Review article: current indications for high resolution computed tomography scanning of the lungs.
    Author: Padley S, Gleeson F, Flower CD.
    Journal: Br J Radiol; 1995 Feb; 68(806):105-9. PubMed ID: 7735737.
    Abstract:
    High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is an effective technique for demonstrating the lung parenchyma in detail and overcomes many of the inadequacies of chest radiography in the diagnosis of diffuse lung disease. This article reviews the role of HRCT in the management of patients with chronic infiltrative lung disease, occupational lung disease, airways disease and acute and sub-acute lung disease.
