Predicting life-threatening hemoptysis in traumatic pulmonary parenchymal injury using computed tomography semi-automated lung volume quantification
Emergency department CT helps predict life-threatening hemoptysis in patients with lung contusions. Maximal CT ratios ≥ 45.49% (-500 HU to 100 HU, either lung lobe) are associated with life-threatening hemoptysis. High chest abbreviated injury scale scores and hemopneumothorax also predict life-threatening hemoptysis.
