Quantitative X-ray computed tomography (CT) in dementia of the Alzheimer type (DAT).
Dementia of the Alzheimer type (DAT) has proven to be difficult to diagnose using computerized X-ray tomography (CT). To improve the identification of DAT with CT, several different quantitative approaches have been tried. Brain parenchymal density measurements and a variety of linear indices of ventricular size have failed to reliably separate DAT patients from age matched controls. Measures o...
متن کاملAdvanced X-ray computed tomography methods: High resolution CT, quantitative CT, 4DCT and phase contrast CT
During the last years, a number of novel X-ray imaging and data processing methods have been developed. This work gives an overview of some recent CT-developments: 1) High resolution CT: State of the art laboratory CT-systems are able to reach resolutions down to 0.7 μm (or even lower) and voxels sizes down to 50 nm. Several applications of high-resolution CT are presented and discussed. 2) Qua...
متن کاملEmpirical correlation for porosity deduction from X-ray computed tomography (CT)
For obtaining reservoir petrophysical properties, for example porosity, non-destructive methods such as X-ray computed tomography, CT, seems to be precise and accurate. Porosity is deducted from the CT image with a single scan via different techniques, such as pore space detection by image segmentation techniques then correlation with porosity. More than one hundred samples with carbonate li...
متن کاملPast and future directions in x-ray computed tomography (CT)
We give a short account of the history of CT from motion tomography in the early 1930’s to sprial CT. We discuss the physical and the mathematical background. Finally we give an outlook on possible future developments of CT and related techniques. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

متن کاملX-ray computed tomography.
X-ray computed tomography (CT), introduced into clinical practice in 1972, was the first of the modern slice-imaging modalities. To reconstruct images mathematically from measured data and to display and to archive them in digital form was a novelty then and is commonplace today. CT has shown a steady upward trend with respect to technology, performance and clinical use independent of predictio...
