Abstract
Background: The results of a quantitative analysis of computed tomography (CT) of interstitial lung disease (ILD) using a computer-aided detection (CAD) technique were correlated with the results of pulmonary function tests.
Purpose: To evaluate the correlation between a quantitative analysis of CT of progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (PF-ILD) including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and non-IPF, which can manifest progressive pulmonary fibrosis and the vital capacity (VC), and to identify indicators for the assessment of a decreased VC.
Material and methods: A total of 73 patients (46 patients with IPF and 27 patients with non-IPF) were included in this study. Associations between the quantitative analysis of CT and the %VC using a CAD software program were investigated using Spearman's rank correlation and a logistic regression analysis. The appropriate cutoff vale for predicting a decreased VC was determined (%VC <80) and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated.
Results: A multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the total extent of interstitial pneumonia on CT was a significant indicator of a decreased VC (P = 0.0001; odds ratio [OR]=1.15; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.06-1.27 in IPF and P = 0.0025; OR=1.16; 95% CI=1.03-1.30 in non-IPF). The cutoff values of the total extent of interstitial pneumonia in IPF and non-IPF for predicting a decreased VC were determined to be 23.3% and 21.5%, and the AUCs were 0.83 and 0.91, respectively.
Conclusion: A quantitative analysis of CT of PF-ILD using a CAD software program could be useful for predicting a decreased VC.
