Organ Dose Measurement in Computed Tomography Using Thermoluminescence Dosimeter in Locally Developed Phantoms
Introduction: Organ dose estimation using thermoluminescence dosimeter (TLD) is known to be a standard, although many other methods, such as simulation software, optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters, and photodiodes are still in use. This study aimed at directly measuring mean organ doses to the selected organs in the head/neck, chest, and abdominal regions from four computed tomography ...
متن کاملComputed Tomography Study of Thoracic Aorta in the Cat
Computed tomography (СТ) with contrast enhancement allows a detailed anatomical description of feline thoracic aorta. For this purpose, 14 sexually mature clinically healthy domestic cats weighing 2.9 to 4.0 kg were investigated. The animals were anaesthetized and fixed in dorsal recumbency on a СТ table (Tomoscan, CX/Q, Siemens). Consequent transversal 5 mm cross-sections were made along the t...
متن کاملComputed tomography angiography of aorta subjected to external wrapping
BACKGROUND External wrapping is a surgical technique used in patients with dilated ascending aorta. To date, there is no available data describing the radiographic features of the aorta subjected to external wrapping using a straight corrugated Dacron vascular prosthesis. The aim of this study was to find distinctive radiographic features of an externally constricted aorta. METHODS Preoperati...
متن کاملComputed Tomography Imaging of the Acute Aorta - Pictorial Essay
This is a pictorial essay reviewing typical computed tomography findings of acute aortic syndrome, traumatic aortic injury, aortitis and some common diagnostic pitfalls.
متن کاملStab Injury of the Thoracic Aorta: Computed Tomography Findings
Stab injury of the thoracic aorta is a rare condition with high mortality rate. Patients must be evaluated carefully, and the diagnosis usually should be confirmed by radiological modalities. In this case, we report a 37-year-old man presented with a penetrating stab injury to the upper back and the thoracic aorta, and the diagnostic role of computed tomography is discussed.
