Single-source chest-abdomen-pelvis cancer staging on a third generation dual-source CT system: comparison of automated tube potential selection to second generation dual-source CT
BACKGROUND Evaluation of latest generation automated attenuation-based tube potential selection (ATPS) impact on image quality and radiation dose in contrast-enhanced chest-abdomen-pelvis computed tomography examinations for gynaecologic cancer staging. METHODS This IRB approved single-centre, observer-blinded retrospective study with a waiver for informed consent included a total of 100 pati...
متن کاملTemporal Resolution Improvement in Single Source and Dual Source CT
Purpose: Recently a new method called TRIPICCS (Temporal Resolution Improved Prior Image Constrained Compressed Sensing) was proposed to improve the temporal resolution of a single source (SS) cardiac CT scan [1] (figures 1+2). This method aims at doubling the temporal resolution and at maintaining homogeneous temporal resolution independently of the location and the motion direction of a vesse...
متن کاملHigh-Pitch CT Pulmonary Angiography in Third Generation Dual-Source CT: Image Quality in an Unselected Patient Population
OBJECTIVES To investigate the feasibility of high-pitch CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in 3rd generation dual-source CT (DSCT) in unselected patients. METHODS Forty-seven patients with suspected pulmonary embolism underwent high-pitch CTPA on a 3rd generation dual-source CT scanner. CT dose index (CTDIvol) and dose length product (DLP) were obtained. Objective image quality was analyzed by c...
متن کاملImage Quality and Radiation Dose for Prospectively Triggered Coronary CT Angiography: 128-Slice Single-Source CT versus First-Generation 64-Slice Dual-Source CT
This study sought to compare the image quality and radiation dose of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) from prospectively triggered 128-slice CT (128-MSCT) versus dual-source 64-slice CT (DSCT). The study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee at Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Eighty consecutive patients with stable heart rates lower...
متن کاملDual Z-Source Network Dual-Input Dual-Output Inverter
This paper presents a modified nine switch inverter with two inputs and two Z-source networks. This inverter has two DC inputs and two AC outputs. Input DC voltages can be boosted to the required level. Amplitude, frequency and phase of AC output voltages can be controlled, independently. The proposed converter can be used in applications with two unregulated DC sources, which require feeding ...
