320-slice CT and myocardial bridge.
1 of 2 DESCRIPTION A 29-year-old professional athlete was referred for cardiac evaluation after a syncope occurring during strenuous exercise. Twelve-lead ECG showed Brugada-like pattern ( fi gure 1 ), but both fl ecainide and genetic tests were negative. ECG Holter and echocardiogram were normal. ECG stress test showed no signifi cant ST-segment changes. In order to rule out coronary artery di...
متن کاملOptimization of Parameters in 16-slice CT-scan Protocols for Reduction of the Absorbed Dose
Introduction In computed tomography (CT) technology, an optimal radiation dose can be achieved via changing radiation parameters such as mA, pitch factor, rotation time and tube voltage (kVp) for diagnostic images. Materials and Methods In this study, the brain, abdomen, and thorax scaning was performed using Toshiba 16-slice scannerand standard AAPM and CTDI phantoms. AAPM phantom was used for...
متن کاملProspective registration of human head magnetic resonance images for reproducible slice positioning using localizer images.
PURPOSE To facilitate assessing brain tumor growth and progression of stroke lesions by reproducible slice positioning in human head magnetic resonance (MR) images, a method for prospective registration is proposed that adjusts the image slice position without moving the patient and with no additional scans. MATERIALS AND METHODS The gradient reference frame of follow-up examinations was adju...
متن کاملA Hybrid Method for Segmentation and Visualization of Teeth in Multi-Slice CT scan Images
Introduction: Various computer assisted medical procedures such as dental implant, orthodontic planning, face, jaw and cosmetic surgeries require automatic quantification and volumetric visualization of teeth. In this regard, segmentation is a major step. Material and Methods: In this paper, inspired by our previous experiences and considering the anatomical knowledge of teeth and jaws, we prop...
متن کاملMulti-slice helical CT: scan and reconstruction.
The multi-slice CT scanner refers to a special CT system equipped with a multiple-row detector array to simultaneously collect data at different slice locations. The multi-slice CT scanner has the capability of rapidly scanning large longitudinal (z) volume with high z-axis resolution. It also presents new challenges and new characteristics. In this paper, we study the scan and reconstruction p...
