Optimisation of whole-body PET/CT scanning protocols
Positron emission tomography (PET) has become one of the major tools for the in vivo localisation of positron-emitting tracers and now is performed routinely using (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) to answer important clinical questions including those in cardiology, neurology, psychiatry, and oncology. The latter application contributed largely to the wide acceptance of this imaging modality and ...
متن کاملINTRATHORACIC KIDNEY: A CT-SCANNING VIEW
We report a patient who was admitted to the department of medicine with palpitation, dyspnea and left flank pain, Chest X-ray revealed a mass in the left lung. The lesion was evaluated as a pulmonary tumor, with a high suspicion of malignancy. Intravenous urography, sonography, and CTscanning revealed a thoracic kidney at the location previously thought to be a lung mass. This is the firs...
متن کاملOptimal Scanning Protocols for Dual-Energy CT Angiography in Peripheral Arterial Stents: An in Vitro Phantom Study
OBJECTIVE To identify the optimal dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) scanning protocol for peripheral arterial stents while achieving a low radiation dose, while still maintaining diagnostic image quality, as determined by an in vitro phantom study. METHODS Dual-energy scans in monochromatic spectral imaging mode were performed on a peripheral arterial phantom with use of three gemstone s...
متن کاملMultislice CT of the head and body routine scans: Are scanning protocols adjusted for paediatric patients?
PURPOSE To investigate whether the multislice CT scanning protocols of head, chest and abdomen are adjusted according to patient's age in paediatric patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Multislice CT examination records of paediatric patients undergoing head, chest and abdomen scans from three public hospitals during a one-year period were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were categorised into t...
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...
