Cone beam CT for dental and maxillofacial imaging: dose matters.
The widespread use of cone-beam CT (CBCT) in dentistry has led to increasing concern regarding justification and optimisation of CBCT exposures. When used as a substitute to multidetector CT (MDCT), CBCT can lead to significant dose reduction; however, low-dose protocols of current-generation MDCTs show that there is an overlap between CBCT and MDCT doses. More importantly, although the 3D info...
متن کاملComprehensive Monte Carlo study of patient doses from cone-beam CT imaging in radiotherapy
Accurate knowledge of ionizing radiation dose from cone-beam CT (CBCT) imaging in radiotherapy is important to allow concomitant risks to be estimated and for justification of imaging exposures. This study uses a Monte Carlo CBCT model to calculate imaging dose for a wide range of imaging protocols for male and female patients. The Elekta XVI CBCT system was modeled using GATE and simulated dos...

متن کاملInter-fraction deformable registration of CT and Cone Beam CT images for adaptive radiotherapy
Recent advances in intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) have allowed accurate and fast delivery of treatment dose in the patient. Daily changes in patient geometry need to be accounted for to take full advantage of the increased accuracy of the delivered dose. On-site imaging using cone beam CT and registration of the acquired image with the algorithm presented here provides tools for effici...
متن کاملContrast enhanced imaging of human meniscus using cone beam CT.
OBJECTIVE Meniscal injuries can lead to mechanical overloading of articular cartilage and eventually to knee osteoarthritis. The objective was to evaluate the potential of contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) to image contrast agent (CA) diffusion in human menisci with a clinical cone beam CT scanner. DESIGN Isolated human menisci (n = 26) were imaged using magnetic resonance imaging ...
