Computed tomography using proton energy loss.
An experiment has been performed to demonstrate the feasibility of proton computed tomography. The proton energy loss was used to measure the projections of the relative stopping power of the phantom. High quality reconstructions were obtained from scans of 19cm and 30cm diameter performance phantoms. Comparison with reconstructions from an EM1 CT-5005 x-ray scanner showed the proton technique ...
متن کاملClinical applications of virtual, non-contrast head images derived from dual-source, dual-energy cerebrovascular computed tomography angiography
Background: This study set out to evaluate the utility of cerebrovascular virtual non-contrast (VNC) scans. Materials and Methods: Conventional non-contrast (CNC) and dual-energy computed tomography angiography (DE-CTA) head scans were conducted on 100 subjects, of which 46 were normal, 15 had parenchymal hematomas of the brain, 13 had ischemic infarction, 22 had tumors, and 4 had calcified les...
متن کاملthe role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union
پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
15 صفحه اولDual energy computed tomography for explosive detection
Single energy computed tomography (CT) scanners use measurements of densities to detect explosives in luggage. It is desirable to apply dual energy techniques to these CT scanners to obtain atomic number measurements to reduce false alarm rates. However, the direct application of existing dual energy techniques has practical problems, such as, approximation errors and lack of boundary constrain...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Dual Energy Computed Tomography
Introduction The idea of computed tomography (CT) was first introduced in the 1960’s with the development of modern computer technology. The first scanners were commercially available in the 1970’s, and grew in popularity through the 1980’s. The innovation of helical-scanning CT produced true volume imaging with sub-millimeter resolution. CT can be used for both anatomical as well as pathologic...
