Ground-Glass Opacity Without Reticulation
Ground-glass opacity (GGO) is caused by partial displacement of air in lung parenchyma. The opacity is caused by partial filling of airspaces,... -
Ground-Glass Opacity with Reticulation
Ground-glass opacity (GGO) appears at thin-section CT (TSCT) as hazy increased opacity of the lung, with the preservation of bronchial and vascular... -
Ground-Glass Opacity and Dark Bronchus Sign
Ground-Glass opacity (GGO) is a nonspecific finding which represents a hazy area of increased attenuation in the lung with preservation of bronchial... -
Ground-glass opacity in a patient with right aortic arch and no left pulmonary artery
BackgroundHere we report a case of patients with mixed ground glass opacity in the left lung combined with congenital right aortic arch, which is...

Ground glass opacity: can we correlate radiological and histological features to plan clinical decision making?
BackgroundThe spectrum of ground glass opacity (GGO) is a diagnostic and clinical management quandary. The role of computed tomographic scans in...

CT-guided placement of microcoil end in the pleural cavity for video-assisted thoracic surgical resection of ground-glass opacity: a retrospective study
BackgroundThe aim of the study was to investigate and summarize the effectiveness and safety of CT-guided microcoil localization before...
-
Differential diagnosis of benign and malignant patchy ground-glass opacity by thin-section computed tomography
BackgroundPrevious studies confirmed that ground-glass nodules (GGNs) with certain CT manifestations had a higher probability of malignancy. However,...
