Emerging clinical applications of computed tomography
X-ray computed tomography (CT) has recently been experiencing remarkable growth as a result of technological advances and new clinical applications. This paper reviews the essential physics of X-ray CT and its major components. Also reviewed are recent promising applications of CT, ie, CT-guided procedures, CT-based thermometry, photon-counting technology, hybrid PET-CT, use of ultrafast-high p...
متن کاملComputed tomography based attenuation correction in PET/CT: Principles, instrumentation, protocols, artifacts and future trends
The advent of dual-modality PET/CT imaging has revolutionized the practice of clinical oncology, cardiology and neurology by improving lesions localization and the possibility of accurate quantitative analysis. In addition, the use of CT images for CT-based attenuation correction (CTAC) allows to decrease the overall scanning time and to create a noise-free attenuat...
متن کاملAbdominal perfusion computed tomography: clinical applications, principles and technique*
New imaging techniques have been developed with the objective of obtaining not only a structural assessment, but also a metabolic and functional analysis of different organs and types of lesions. Among such tools perfusion computed tomography (PCT) has recently aroused the interest of many researchers in studying the applicability of such imaging modality in the evaluation of abdominal organs a...
