Weighted-averaging Multi-planar Reconstruction Method for Multi-detector Row Computed Tomography

[Weighted-averaging multi-planar reconstruction method for multi-detector row computed tomography].

Development of multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) has enabled three-dimensions (3D) scanning with minute voxels. Minute voxels improve spatial resolution of CT images. At the same time, however, they increase image noise. Multi-planar reconstruction (MPR) is one of effective 3D-image processing techniques. The conventional MPR technique can adjust slice thickness of MPR images. When ...

Bilateral naviculocuneiform coalitions: using multi-planar reconstruction computed tomography.

known disorder in pediatric and adolescent patients who present with persistent foot pain. Talocalcaneal and calcaneonavicular coalitions are most frequently encountered, but naviculocuneiform coalition is uncommon.1-3 Tarsal coalition often is overlooked in plain radiographs of the feet. This article reports a case of bilateral naviculocuneiform coalitions diagnosed using multi-planar reconstr...

Radiation exposure for coronary artery calcium score at prospective 320 row multi - detector computed tomography

Purpose: To date there is extensive data on the radiation dose for assessing coronary artery calcium scores (CACS) with 4-64 row multidetector MDCT. However with the advent of 320 row MDCT, the entire heart can be imaged in one beat and thus potentially reduce the radiation dose. The aim of this study was to evaluate radiation dose for CACS on low-dose prospective EKG-triggered 320 row MDCT. Ma...
