    <p>Chest computed tomography (CT) image of a 79-year-old man with IPF showing UIP pattern. This CT slice shows peripheral honeycomb lung predominantly on the right side (A). The CT image showing extracted whole lungs (in green) (B). The volume of the whole lungs (WL) is 2,438 milliliter (mL). The CT image showing normally attenuated lung, as defined between −950 Hounsfield units (HU) and −701 HU (in yellow) (C). The volume of normally attenuated lung (NL) is 1,346 mL. Although some parts of honeycombing are marked as normally attenuated lung (in yellow) by the workstation, most areas of normally attenuated lung are considered to be identical to normal lung tissue. The yellow area under the histogram curve represents the NL (D). The percentage of NL (NL%) is 55.2%. Forced vital capacity and diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide of this patient are 1.59 L (52.1%, %predicted) and 6.6 mL/min/mmHg (59.2%, %predicted), respectively. His partial pressure of arterial oxygen is 65.9 Torr, and the lowest percutaneous oxygen saturation is 84% during the 6-min walk test. The patient was classified in Japanese stage IV and GAP stage II.</p

    <p>The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the percentage of the volume of normally attenuated lung in whole lungs from CT imaging (NL%) for clinical composite unit stages of Japanese stage II/III/IV (A), Japanese stage III/IV (B), and GAP stage II/III (C). The values of AUC are 0.864, 0.822, and 0.844, respectively.</p

    <p>The area under the curve (AUC) values of CT imaging indices, including mean CT value of the whole lungs (MCT), the volume of the whole lungs extracted from CT imaging (WL), the volume of normally attenuated lung (NL), and the percentage of the volume of normally attenuated lung in whole lungs from CT imaging (NL%), are shown.</p
