Abstract
Purpose: Visual computed tomography (CT) scoring and change in forced vital capacity (FVC) are constrained by measurement variation, and may be eclipsed in the near future by computer analysis of CTs. We compared the ability of visual and computer scoring of CTs to predict functional decline (FVC change) in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and evaluated visual, computer-aided lung informatics for pathology evaluation and rating (CALIPER) and FVC change scores in predicting mortality in IPF.
