A review of the issues surrounding incidental findings on CT attenuation correction (CTAC ) images during SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (2016)
Journal Article
myocardial perfusion imaging

Incidental findings are not uncommon on medical imaging with a particularly high prevalence identified in the chest. Pulmonary nodules contribute to a large proportion of incidental findings within the chest and these can often hinder definitive dia...

A review of incidental findings on low-resolution CT images during SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging : a clinical dilemma (2016)
Journal Article
Coward, J., Nightingale, J., & Hogg, P. (2016). A review of incidental findings on low-resolution CT images during SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging : a clinical dilemma. Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology, 44(3), 167-172. https://doi.org/10.2967/jnmt.116.174557

Incidental findings are common in medical imaging. There is a particularly high prevalence of incidental findings within the thorax, the most frequent being pulmonary nodules. Whilst pulmonary nodules have the potential to be malignant, the vast m...

Multicentre analysis of incidental findings on low-resolution CT attenuation correction images : an extended study (2015)
Journal Article
CT attenuation correction images : an extended study. British Journal of Radiology, 88(1056), https://doi.org/10.1259/bjr.20150555

Objective: To review new incidental findings detected on low-resolution CT attenuation correction (CTAC) images acquired during single-photon emission CT-CT myocardial perfusion imaging as an extension to our initial study. Methods: CTAC images... Read More about Multicentre analysis of incidental findings on low-resolution CT attenuation correction images : an extended study.

Lesion detection performance : comparative analysis of low-dose CT data of the chest on two hybrid imaging systems (2015)
Journal Article
Jessop, M., Thompson, J., Coward, J., Sanderud, A., Jorge, J., De Groot, M., …Hogg, P. (2015). Lesion detection performance : comparative analysis of low-dose CT data of the chest on two hybrid imaging systems. Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology, 43(1), 53-60. https://doi.org/10.2967/jnmt.114.147447

PURPOSE: Incidental findings, discovered in low-dose CT images obtained during hybrid imaging, are an increasing phenomenon with advancing CT technology. Understanding their diagnostic value along with technical limitations is therefore important...

Multi-centre analysis of incidental findings on low-resolution CT attenuation correction images (2014)
Journal Article
Coward, J., Lawson, R., Kane, T., Elias, M., Howes, A., Birchall, J., & Hogg, P. (2014). Multi-centre analysis of incidental findings on low-resolution CT attenuation correction images. British Journal of Radiology, 87(1042), https://doi.org/10.1259/bjr.20130701

Objective: To review new incidental findings detected on low-resolution CT attenuation correction (CTAC) images acquired during single-photon emission CT (SPECT-CT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and to determine whether the CTAC images had d...
