Strategy of computed tomography image optimization in cervical vertebra and neck soft tissue in emergency patients
Introduction: Due to the use of ionizing radiation in the CT scan, optimal parameters should be used to reduce the risk of cancer in patients who are constantly exposed to X-rays. The aim of this study was to optimize the parameters used in CT scan of cervical vertebrae and neck soft tissue with minimal loss of image quality Materials and Methods: In this s...
متن کاملRelationship between tissue characterization with 40 MHz intravascular ultrasound imaging and 64-slice computed tomography.
BACKGROUND Identification of coronary plaque composition is important for selecting the treatment strategy, and 64-slice computed tomography (CT) is a noninvasive method of characterizing atherosclerotic plaques. However, the correlation between plaque characteristics detected by CT and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is not clear. A 40 MHz IVUS imaging system (iMap-IVUS) has recently been deve...
متن کاملRadiation exposure during midfacial imaging using 4- and 16-slice computed tomography, cone beam computed tomography systems and conventional radiography.
OBJECTIVES Radiation doses were determined to balance risks against usefulness of the different modalities available for the imaging of the facial skeleton. METHODS An Alderson Rando Phantom, armed with lithium fluoride thermoluminescent dosemeters (TLDs) was exposed using a set of four conventional radiographs (orbital view, modified Waters view, orthopantomography, skull posterior--anterior...
متن کاملDiagnosis of necrotizing soft tissue infections by computed tomography.
HYPOTHESIS In contrast to previous beliefs, we hypothesize that computed tomography (CT) scanning is sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTIs). DESIGN Retrospective and prospective case series. SETTING Academic medical center. PATIENTS Patients who were clinically suspected of having NSTIs from January 1, 2003, through April 30, 2009, and who u...
متن کاملCan computed tomography quantify pulmonary emphysema?
In the last decade, several studies have suggested the possible role of computed tomography (CT) in the detection and the quantification of pulmonary emphysema. In order to verify whether this new method is adequately validated, this article gives an overview of these studies. The review shows that most of the studies used conventional CT and were based on visual scoring. Only a few were based ...
