Fig. 2D —53-year-old man with numerous metastatic nodules from renal
cell carcinoma and unmatched nodule in lingula. Transverse (C) and
coronal reformatted (D) CT images show follow-up findings. Overall
matching rate was 30% (3/10). Matched volume of interest (VOI) in C and
D is present in wrong place over lung parenchyma without including
nodule. Correct nodule (not shown) that should be matched was located two
sections superior to VOI. Matching rate is low, likely because of substantial
difference in inspiration levels between CT studies. (Inspiration level
difference is not evident in figures, which are screen capture images centered
at matching VOIs.)
