Qureight used three deep learning models developed to quantify lung volume (Lung8), pulmonary vessel volume (Vascul8), and fibrosis extent (Fibr8) on the baseline and follow-up CTs of ENV-101 ...

Still, many patients with interstitial lung diseases like idiopathic PF will go on to develop PH due to the remodeling of pulmonary vasculature, the authors noted. Patients with PH can benefit ...

Iatrogenic Causes: Radiation therapy, cytotoxic drugs (e.g., bleomycin, methotrexate, amiodarone), and certain antibiotics are associated with lung fibrosis.

CXCL12 has been identified as a regulator of fibrotic states – such as cirrhosis and pulmonary fibrosis – with studies suggesting it may also play a role in the development and progression of RIF.

Post-COVID pulmonary fibrosis, which involves scarring of the lungs that can worsen over time and may require a lung transplant, affects some patients after infection, according to pulmonologists.

But when Dr. Herazo-Maya, director of the Ubben Center for Pulmonary Fibrosis Research and an associate professor at the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine, began studying patients who developed ...

The patients' lungs got better. The importance of this finding is that pulmonary fibrosis after COVID-19 tends to resolve, while in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) it always progresses.

Pulmonary Fibrosis Lung fibrosis is a permanent scarring of the lungs which can result from untreated radiation pneumonitis. Radiation pneumonitis is an inflammation of the lungs which occurs between ...
