متن کاملValidation of computed tomography-based attenuation correction of deviation between theoretical and actual values for four computed tomography scanners
Objective: In this study, we aimed to validate the accuracy of computed tomography-based attenuation correction (CTAC) using the bilinear scaling method.Methods: The measured attenuation coefficient (μm) was compared to a theoretical attenuation coefficient (μt ) using four different CT scanners and an RMI 467 phantom. The effective energy of the CT beam X-rays was calculated, using the aluminu...
متن کاملCompound analysis of gallstones using dual energy computed tomography--results in a phantom model.
PURPOSE The potential of dual energy computed tomography (DECT) for the analysis of gallstone compounds was investigated. The main goal was to find parameters, that can reliably define high percentage (>70%) cholesterol stones without calcium components. MATERIALS AND METHODS 35 gallstones were analyzed with DECT using a phantom model. Stone samples were put into specimen containers filled wi...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Liver Phantom Based on Computed Tomography Images for Dosimetric Purpose
Introduction: The present study was conducted with the aim of designing a liver phantom for dosimetry. To benchmark the results obtained by the developed liver phantom, another method was applied for the dosimetry of a real liver tissue using imaging. Materials and Methods: For the purpose of the study, a real liver tissue was converted into a phantom based on thegram-molecular weight of the co...
متن کاملReproducibility of image quality for moving objects using respiratory-gated computed tomography: a study using a phantom model
To investigate the reproducibility of computed tomography (CT) imaging quality in respiratory-gated radiation treatment planning is essential in radiotherapy of movable tumors. Seven series of regular and six series of irregular respiratory motions were performed using a thorax dynamic phantom. For the regular respiratory motions, the respiratory cycle was changed from 2.5 to 4 s and the amplit...
