Automated Classification of Usual Interstitial Pneumonia Using Regional Volumetric Texture Analysis in High-Resolution Computed Tomography

Conclusions: Our results are encouraging and suggest that an automated system may be useful in routine clinical practice as a diagnostic aid for identifying patients with complex lung disease such as classic UIP, obviating the need for invasive surgical lung biopsy and its associated risks.
