A novel dual energy CT-based attenuation correction method in PET/CT systems: A phantom study
In present PET/CT scanners, PET attenuation correction is performed by relying on the information given by CT scan. In the CT-based attenuation correction methods, dual-energy technique (DECT) is the most accurate approach, which has been limited due to the increasing patient dose. In this feasibility study, we have introduced a new method that can implement dual-en...
متن کاملIntra-Patient Supine-Prone Colon Registration in CT Colonography Using Shape Spectrum
CT colonography (CTC) is a minimally invasive screening technique for colorectal polyps and colon cancer. Since electronic colon cleansing (ECC) cannot completely remove the presence of pseudo-polyps, most CTC protocols acquire both prone and supine images to improve the visualization of the lumen wall and to reduce false positives. Comparisons between the prone and supine images can be facilit...
متن کاملCT Colonography (“Virtual Colonoscopy”) for Colon Cancer Screening
Background: Computed tomographic (CT) colonography, also known as "virtual colonoscopy," is an imaging technique of the colon involving helical computed tomography and computer software to generate high-resolution 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional images of the inner surface of the colon. These images are then interpreted by a radiologist to determine the presence of several types of abnormalitie...
متن کاملCity Research Online Registration of the Endoluminal Surfaces of the Colon Derived from Prone and Supine Ct Colonography Registration of the Endoluminal Surfaces of the Colon Derived from Ctc
Purpose: Computed tomographic (CT) colonography is a relatively new technique for detecting bowel cancer or potentially precancerous polyps. CT scanning is combined with 3-dimensional image reconstruction to produce a virtual endoluminal representation similar to optical colonoscopy. Because retained fluid and stool can mimic pathology, CT data is acquired with the bowel cleansed and insufflate...
