A novel dual energy CT-based attenuation correction method in PET/CT systems: A phantom study
In present PET/CT scanners, PET attenuation correction is performed by relying on the information given by CT scan. In the CT-based attenuation correction methods, dual-energy technique (DECT) is the most accurate approach, which has been limited due to the increasing patient dose. In this feasibility study, we have introduced a new method that can implement dual-en...
متن کاملDual-energy CT imaging of thoracic malignancies
Computed tomography (CT) plays a pivotal role in the detection, characterization, and staging of lung cancer and other thoracic malignancies. Since the introduction of clinically viable dual-energy CT techniques, substantial evidence has accumulated on the use of this modality for imaging chest malignancies. This article describes the principles of dual-energy CT along with suitable image acqui...

متن کاملComparison of dual-source computed tomography (CT) dual-energy angiography with conventional 3D imaging towards caudomedial vessels
We aim to analyse the time consumption, image quality and efficacies of dual-source Computed Tomography (CT) Dual-Energy Angiography (DE-CTA) in diagnosing vascular stenosis. The medical records of 35 patients with clinically suspected caudomedial vascular diseases were performed DE-CTA. The residual bone images obtained in DE-CTA and conventional 3D software were compared, as well as the sensi...
متن کاملDual-Energy CT in Neuroimaging
Image contrast in CT is mostly dependent on elements with high atomic weight, such as calcium, iron, and iodine The concentrations of these elements can be calculated from dual-energy x-ray data based on their characteristic attenuation patterns Dual-energy CT may can be helpful in neuroimaging to: Differentiate between hemorrhage and iodinated contrast agents in brain parenchyma Improve CT ang...
