Randomized controlled trial comparing the costs of gastric cancer screening systems between serological risk-based upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and the existing barium photofluorography: gastric cancer screening labeled by serum examination in place Although the risk of gastric cancer can be stratified according to Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) IgG antibody titer and pepsinogen levels methods for a 5-year intervention: barium photofluorography as primary examination followed by detailed examination with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (Ba-Endo) and risk-based upper gastrointestinal endoscopy by ABC classification (ABC-Endo). The primary endpoint was the total testing cost per participant over a 5-year period. The secondary endpoint was the expense required to detect one gastric
Preliminary study of automatic gastric cancer risk classification from photofluorography To perform automatic gastric cancer risk classification using photofluorography for realizing effective mass screening as a preliminary study. We used data for 2100 subjects including X-ray images, pepsinogen I and II levels, PGI/PGII ratio, () antibody, eradication history and interview sheets. We performed

Recent development of gastric cancer prevention. A mass screening program using photofluorography has been used as a secondary prophylaxis of gastric cancer in Japan. However, we are at a turning point for reconsidering the strategy of gastric cancer prevention because of various problems with photofluorography. The shift from current secondary prophylaxis to primary prophylaxis is now required
Usefulness of gastric cancer screening using the serum pepsinogen test method. The measurement of serum pepsinogen has recently gained attention as a candidate for a new screening test for gastric cancer. This method is particularly attractive given its lower cost and simplicity to administer relative to photofluorography. To compare the accuracy between the two screening methods

Source: CDC Purpose mass screening for tuberculosis Chest photofluorography, or abreugraphy (also called mass miniature radiography), is a photofluorography technique for mass screening for tuberculosis using a miniature (50 to 100 mm) photograph of the screen of an X-ray fluoroscopy of the thorax, first developed in 1936.Contents * 1 History * 2 Current use * 3 See also * 4 ReferencesHistory[edit]Abreugraphy receives

Radiological practice in Hiroshima and Nagasaki: trents from 1964 to 1970. Use of X-ray in Hiroshima and Nagasaki from 1964 to 1970 was assessed according to numbers of films consumed, and the radiographic, fluoroscopic, and photofluorographic examinations performed. Except for chest photofluorography, a steady increase in the use of medical X-ray since Workd War II is demonstrated.
PROBLEMS IN RADIOLOGICAL INTERPRETATION Recent comparative x-ray studies demonstrate: (1) Photofluorography is a relatively efficient tool for tuberculosis case finding. (2) All photofluorograms should be interpreted independently by two competent interpreters. (3) The activity of a lesion cannot be determined from a single roentgenogram. There is a variation in film interpretation between
Genetics of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. A genetic family study was undertaken by photofluorography of the first, second, and third degree relatives of 116 index patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). The index patients were ascertained in the course of an epidemiological screening. The pattern of familial clusters and the recurrence risk related to the number of affected
