Dual-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 کاملDual Z-Source Network Dual-Input Dual-Output Inverter
This paper presents a modified nine switch inverter with two inputs and two Z-source networks. This inverter has two DC inputs and two AC outputs. Input DC voltages can be boosted to the required level. Amplitude, frequency and phase of AC output voltages can be controlled, independently. The proposed converter can be used in applications with two unregulated DC sources, which require feeding ...
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...
متن کاملNonuniqueness in dual-energy CT.
PURPOSE The goal is to determine whether dual-energy computed tomography (CT) leads to a unique reconstruction using two basis materials. METHODS The beam-hardening equation is simplified to the single-voxel case. The simplified equation is rewritten to show that the solution can be considered to be linear operations in a vector space followed by a measurement model which is the sum of the ex...
متن کاملA 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...
