Chronic dyspnea of pulmonary origin raises concern for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or interstitial lung disease. A chest radiograph is recommended as the initial imaging study. When chest radiography is nonrevealing or provides no definitive diagnosis, a high-resolution chest computed tomography is indicated. The high-resolution chest computed tomography should include expiratory imaging in patients with known or suspected air trapping.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 November 2012.
All research outputs
#22,759,802
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Thoracic Imaging
#757
of 837 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#100,168
of 104,704 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Thoracic Imaging
#2
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 837 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.8. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 104,704 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
