Visible Pneumatosis in Necrotizing Enterocolitis at 100% Oxygen Supplementation?

Hi, hope this is an appropriate question for this sub.

Currently studying for a licensing exam in Germany and have come across the info in various textbooks that pneumatosis is not always visible/ a reliable sign of NEC if the infant is being supplemented with 100% O2. Why is this the case? It's hard to find info on this as it's uncommon for the infant to be getting 100% O2 anyway for obvious reasons, but I would appreciate your feedback and ideas!

Edit: I'm asking specifically about an abdominal X-ray, forgot to mention this.

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
