Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the pulmonary thin-section CT findings in patients with seasonal influenza virus pneumonia with Streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia. METHODS The study group included 30 patients (20 males and 10 females; age range, 20-91 years; mean age, 55.9 years) with seasonal influenza virus pneumonia and 71 patients (47 males and 24 females; age range, 27-92 years; mean age, 67.5 years) with S. pneumoniae pneumonia. RESULTS The proportion of community-acquired infection was significantly higher in patients with influenza virus pneumonia than with S. pneumoniae pneumonia (p = 0.001). CT findings of ground-glass attenuation (GGA) (p = 0.012) and crazy-paving appearance (p = 0.03) were significantly more frequent in patients with influenza virus pneumonia than with S. pneumoniae pneumonia. Conversely, consolidation (p < 0.001), mucoid impaction (p < 0.001), centrilobular nodules (p = 0.04) and pleural effusion (p = 0.003) were significantly more frequent in patients with S. pneumoniae pneumonia than in those with influenza virus pneumonia. CONCLUSION Pulmonary thin-section CT findings, such as consolidation and mucoid impaction may be useful in distinguishing between seasonal influenza virus pneumonia and S. pneumoniae pneumonia. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE (1) Distinguishing seasonal influenza virus pneumonia with S. pneumoniae pneumonia is important. (2) The CT findings of GGA and crazy-paving appearance were more frequently found in patients with influenza virus pneumonia than in patients with S. pneumoniae pneumonia, whereas consolidation, mucoid impaction, centrilobular nodules and pleural effusion were more frequently found in patients with S. pneumoniae pneumonia.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine ombrabulin's maximum tolerated dose and dose recommended for Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors and to assess its antitumor activity and overall safety and pharmacokinetic profiles. METHODS This was a multi-center, open-label, sequential-cohort, dose-escalation phase I study of ombrabulin, a vascular disrupting agent, administered once every 3 weeks. Patients were treated with 15.5, 25, 35, or 50 mg/m(2) ombrabulin over a 30-min intravenous infusion. The recommended dose was the highest dose at which <33 % of all evaluable patients experienced dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) during the first treatment cycle or 50 mg/m(2) (recommended in Caucasian patients) if the previous definition was not met. RESULTS Fifteen patients were treated. No DLT occurred with 15.5, 25, or 35 mg/m(2) ombrabulin. In the 50 mg/m(2) group, one patient had Grade 3 lymphopenia, and another experienced Grade 2 hypertension and Grade 3 diarrhea judged as DLTs. The most frequent related adverse events in this group were diarrhea, nausea, and hypertension. Two patients had Grade 3 anemia, one at the 15.5 mg/m(2) and the other at the 50 mg/m(2). No AEs necessitating dose reduction or Grade 4 AEs were observed. Overall, five patients had stable disease. Pharmacokinetic parameters were comparable to those in non-Japanese patients. CONCLUSIONS Ombrabulin treatment once every 3 weeks was well tolerated in Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors. The dose recommended is 50 mg/m(2), as in Caucasian patients. The safety and pharmacokinetic profiles were comparable between Japanese and Caucasian patients (funded by Sanofi; ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00968916).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aim to compare image quality and radiation doses between low-dose CT and follow-up standard diagnostic CT for lung cancer screening. METHODS In a single medical institution, 19 subjects who had been screened for lung cancer by low-dose CT before going through follow-up standard diagnostic CT were randomly selected. Both CT image sets for all subjects were independently evaluated by five specialized physicians. RESULTS There were no significant differences between low-dose CT screening and follow-up standard diagnostic CT for lung cancer screening in all 11 criteria. The concordance rate for the diagnoses was approximately 80% (p < 0.001) for all categories. Agreement of the evaluation of all categories in the final diagnosis exceeded 94% (p < 0.001). Five physicians detecting and characterizing the pulmonary nodules did not recognized the difference between low-dose CT screening and follow-up standard diagnostic CT. With low-dose CT, the effective dose ranged between 1.3 and 3.4 mSv, whereas in the follow-up diagnostic CT, the effective dose ranged between 8.5 and 14.0 mSv. CONCLUSION This study suggests that low-dose CT can be effectively used as a follow-up standard diagnostic CT in place of standard-dose CT in order to reduce the radiation dose.

Abstract
We performed a detailed analysis of hysterectomy specimens of uterine cervical cancer to determine the appropriate length of uterine body to include within the clinical target volume. Between 2008 and 2011, 54 patients with uterine cervical carcinoma underwent hysterectomy. Those with quality pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data were included for analysis. Tumor sizes measured by MRI and microscopy were compared with regard to brachytherapy-oriented parameters. Detailed descriptive analysis focusing on the extent of tumor involvement was also performed. A total of 31 specimens were analyzed. The median maximal tumor length measured by MRI was slightly shorter than microscopic length (19 vs. 24 mm, respectively), while the maximal radius was almost identical. No tumors with a maximal size <2 cm by MRI (n = 6) extended to the uterine body ≥ 1/3. The majority of maximal tumor length underestimation on MRI was within 1 cm. Precise tumor delineation can be made by MRI. For patients with tumors <2 cm on MRI, treating the entire uterine body length may not be necessary. A 1-cm margin around an MRI-based gross tumor seems to be adequate to cover the actual tumor involvement.

Abstract
AIM To assess pulmonary high-resolution computed tomography (CT) findings in patients with acute Streptococcus milleri pulmonary infection. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty consecutive patients with acute S. milleri pneumonia who had undergone high-resolution CT chest examinations between January 2004 and March 2010 were retrospectively identified. Twenty-seven patients with concurrent infections were excluded. The final study group comprised 33 patients (25 men, 8 women; aged 20-88 years, mean 63.1 years) with S. milleri infection. The patients' clinical findings were assessed. Parenchymal abnormalities, enlarged lymph nodes, and pleural effusion were evaluated on high-resolution CT. RESULTS Underlying conditions included malignancy (n = 15), a smoking habit (n = 11), and diabetes mellitus (n = 8). CT images of all patients showed abnormal findings, including ground-glass opacity (n = 24), bronchial wall thickening (n = 23), consolidation (n = 17), and cavities (n = 7). Pleural effusion was found in 18 patients, and complex pleural effusions were found in seven patients. CONCLUSION Pulmonary infection caused by S. milleri was observed mostly in male patients with underlying conditions such as malignancy or a smoking habit. The CT findings in patients with S. milleri consisted mainly of ground-glass opacity, bronchial wall thickening, pleural effusions, and cavities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess clinical and pulmonary thin-section CT findings in patients with acute Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) pulmonary infection. METHODS We retrospectively identified 44 patients with acute PA pneumonia who had undergone chest thin-section CT examinations between January 2004 and December 2010. We excluded nine patients with concurrent infections. The final study group comprised 35 patients (21 males, 14 females; age range 30-89 years, mean age 66.9 years) with PA pneumonia. The patients' clinical findings were assessed. Parenchymal abnormalities, enlarged lymph nodes and pleural effusion were evaluated on thin-section CT. RESULTS Underlying diseases included malignancy (n=13), a smoking habit (n=11) and cardiac disease (n=8). CT scans of all patients revealed abnormal findings, including ground-glass opacity (n=34), bronchial wall thickening (n=31), consolidation (n=23) and cavities (n=5). Pleural effusion was found in 15 patients. CONCLUSION PA pulmonary infection was observed in patients with underlying diseases such as malignancy or a smoking habit. The CT findings in patients with PA consisted mainly of ground-glass attenuation and bronchial wall thickening. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE The CT findings consisted mainly of ground-glass attenuation, bronchial wall thickening and cavities. These findings in patients with an underlying disease such as malignancy or a smoking habit may be suggestive of pneumonia caused by PA infection.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the expression level of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) and of 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) in various thoracic neoplasm.Three hundreds-eight patients [non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)(n=56), malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM)(n=21), pulmonary metastatic tumors (PMT)(n=148), thymic epithelial tumors (n=49) and pulmonary neuroendocrine tumor (n=34)] who underwent 18F-FDG PET before treatment were included in this study. Tumors sections were stained by immunohistochemistry for ERCC1, glucose transporter 1(Glut1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and microvessel density (MVD) by determinate by CD34. The expression of ERCC1 in thoracic neoplasms had a positivity of 49% (152/308), and the positive rates of ERCC1 expression in NSCLC, PMT, thymic epithelial tumor, pulmonary neuroendocrine tumor and MPM were 52, 43, 53, 47 and 85%, respectively. The positivity of ERCC1 expression was significantly higher in MPM and SQC than in the other histological types. A statistically significant correlation between ERCC1 expression and 18F-FDG uptake was observed in thymic epithelial tumors, especially thymoma. Moreover, ERCC1 expression was also closely associated with the expression of Glut1, VEGF and MVD.Our results indicated that 18F-FDG uptake may be an alternative biomarker for predicting ERCC1 expression in patients with thymoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the pulmonary thin-section CT findings of patients with acute Streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia with and without concurrent infection. METHODS The study group comprised 86 patients with acute S. pneumoniae pneumonia, 36 patients with S. pneumoniae pneumonia combined with Haemophilus influenzae infection, 26 patients with S. pneumoniae pneumonia combined with Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection and 22 patients with S. pneumoniae pneumonia combined with methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) infection. We compared the thin-section CT findings among the groups. RESULTS Centrilobular nodules and bronchial wall thickening were significantly more frequent in patients with pneumonia caused by concurrent infection (H. influenzae: p<0.001 and p<0.001, P. aeruginosa: p<0.001 and p<0.001, MSSA: p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively) than in those infected with S. pneumoniae alone. Cavity and bilateral pleural effusions were significantly more frequent in cases of S. pneumoniae pneumonia with concurrent P. aeruginosa infection than in cases of S. pneumoniae pneumonia alone (p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively) or with concurrent H. influenzae (p<0.05 and p<0.001, respectively) or MSSA infection (p<0.05 and p<0.05, respectively). CONCLUSIONS When a patient with S. pneumoniae pneumonia has centrilobular nodules, bronchial wall thickening, cavity or bilateral pleural effusions on CT images, concurrent infection should be considered.

Abstract
We evaluated associations of interstitial changes with radiation pneumonitis (RP) for patients treated with thoracic radiotherapy. Between 2005 and 2009, patients who received thoracic radiotherapy of 40 Gy or more for lung cancer or thymic tumors and were followed-up for more than 6 months were eligible for this study. Possible risk factors for RP included the presence of interstitial changes on computed tomography before radiotherapy, and elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels; these were compared with the incidences of severe RP. A total of 106 patients were included. The incidences of RP were 4 (4%), 0 (0%), and 5 (5%) for grades 3, 4, and 5, respectively. For those with interstitial changes, the incidence of RP ≥ grade 3 was significantly increased from 3% (2/79) to 26% (7/27) (p < 0.001). CRP and LDH levels were also associated with increased RP, as were pulmonary emphysema and performance status ≥ 2. Among 91 patients with RP ≥ grade 1, RP grade ≥ 3 occurred significantly earlier than grades 1 and 2. In conclusion, pulmonary interstitial changes, LDH and CRP levels, pulmonary emphysema, and performance status ≥ 2 were significantly associated with RP ≥ grade 3. RP grade ≥ 3 occurred significantly earlier than grades 1 and 2. The early appearance of interstitial changes requires careful management due to the possibility of severe RP.
