Quantitative COVID-19 Scores Using High Resolution Computed Tomography (UCLA Case No. 2022-225)
Summary: UCLA researchers in the Department of Radiology have developed an innovation algorithm that measures lung damage associated with COVID-19 using computed tomography (CT) data. Background: Computed tomography (CT) scans are essential in diagnosing and monitoring different types of lung damage. At present, radiologist manually inspect CT scans...

Hybrid Computer Tomography Scanning System
The invention relates to a combination hybrid computer tomography (CT) system that is particularly suited for elucidating stages in pulmonary diseases, notably cystic fibrosis and lung cancer. Improved visualization of lung parenchyma and the margins of lung cysts (non-invasive “virtual biopsy”) may provide sufficient detail to distinguish the types...

Improved Acoustic Plethysmograph System for Noninvasive Measurement of Pulmonary Function
CDC researchers have developed a novel acoustic whole body plethysmograph (AWBP) that allows measurement of tidal volume in lab animals, independent of gas compression in the lung. This system provides particular advantages over the traditional whole body plethysmograph (WBP) when measuring model animals with increased gas compression due to increased...

Defensin-Based Therapeutics for the Treatment of Pulmonary Disease
Investigators at the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute have developed modified defensins that are resistant to degradation, have improved characteristics compared to unmodified defensins, and are promising candidates for pulmonary disease therapeutics. Defensins are small cationic peptides that defend the lung against pathogenic microorganisms...
