Free and open-source software application for the evaluation of coronary computed tomography angiography images.
BACKGROUND The standardization of images used in Medicine in 1993 was performed using the DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) standard. Several tests use this standard and it is increasingly necessary to design software applications capable of handling this type of image; however, these software applications are not usually free and open-source, and this fact hinders their ad...
متن کاملEvaluation of Metal Artifact Reduction software in Computed Tomography
Introduction: The image quality of computed tomography (CT) can be seriously lowered by metal implants of patients. These implants are known to exert a significant impact on diagnostic accuracy due to artifacts. The current study aimed to assess the usefulness of Metal Artifact Reduction (MAR) software in the reduction of metal artifacts, in comparison to iterative rec...
متن کاملComputed Tomography Scans of Alcoholics : Cerebral Atrophy ?
time each day, in closed, sound-insulated chambers, with continuous white masking noise. There were thus no distractions to interfere with the performance of the task. Another feature that may have influenced the result is that the rat's first response in the session was usually reinforced. Contrast effect may have contributed to the widespread impression that BSR results in rapid extinction. A...
متن کاملMinimising medically unwarranted computed tomography scans.
As computed tomography (CT) is such a superb diagnostic tool and individual CT risks are small, whenever a CT scan is clinically warranted, the CT benefit/risk balance is by far in the patient's favour. However, if a CT scan is not clinically warranted, this balance shifts dramatically. It is likely that at least 25% of CT scans fall into this latter category, in that they could either be repla...
متن کاملIncreasing efforts to regulate computed tomography scans.
I n 2009, Cedars – Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles disclosed that 206 patients had been severely overdosed with radiation while receiving perfusion computed tomography (CT) scans of the brain. That debacle catalyzed a California law that now represents the fi rst effort to regulate U.S. CT scans. Dubbed SB-1237, with an effective date of July 1, 2012, the law directs hospitals in California...
