"My poster describes the HLCT findings in bronchiolitis obliterans with organizing pneumonia (BOOP) and chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (CEP). And, to make clear the different points on HLCT. Both diseases have been considered to share many features, at clinical, laboratory, and even pathological findings. And some authorities say that both diseases cannot be discriminated on HLCT. My present paper is to describe the difference…"

If a cluster of calcifications is found on mammography, and the physician does not have a good feel as to whether it is malignant or benign-potentially a computerized system can be used to diagnose the possibility or the probability of the cluster being malignant…"

Supplementary breast imaging with additional mammographic views, such as the off-angle view and spot compression, in addition to sonographic evaluation of these lesions, can often be very helpful in diagnosing these findings…"
