Abstract
Technological advancements in imaging have revolutionized noninvasive imaging, enabling improvements in diagnosis and prognosis of lung diseases in general and infectious lung diseases in particular. In parallel to these imaging developments, there have been important improvements in radiological image analysis techniques that provide accurate quantifiable information to help clinicians in their diagnostic decisions. Current quantitative image analysis approaches have some limitations, and novel image analysis techniques could provide automated and quantitative information that could be even more beneficial for the clinicians.
