background although the aim of cardiac computed tomographic angiography (cta) is to visualize the cardiac, coronary, and great vessels, portions of noncardiac structures such as lung, mediastinum, bones and abdomen are visible on the scan. some have suggested that the scans should be evaluated in all field of view. some other believe that reporting accidental findings can lead to unnecessary fo...
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of a new generation spiral multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) scanner (Brilliance 40, Philips Medical Systems, Cleveland, Ohio) in the diagnosis of coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR). BACKGROUND Noninvasive imaging of ISR would be clinically useful, but artifacts caused by metallic stent struts have limited the role of earl...
AIMS We evaluated the quality of non-enhanced multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) images of the pulmonary vein (PV) and the clinical results of catheter ablation to isolate the PV for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) without the use of contrast medium in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS AND RESULTS We compared PV images quantitatively and qualitatively betwee...
BACKGROUND Diagnostic performance of Diffusion-Weighted magnetic resonance Imaging (DWI) and Multi-Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) for TNM (Tumor, Lymph node, Metastasis) staging of gastric cancer was compared. PATIENTS AND METHODS We used axial T2-weighted images and DWI (b-0,400 and b-800 s/mm2) protocol on 51 pre-operative patients who had been diagnosed with gastric cancer. We also co...
BACKGROUND Preoperative assessment of patients with aortic valve stenosis (AS) relies on the evaluation of AS severity (aortic valve area, AVA) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by echocardiography, and of coronary artery anatomy by coronary angiography. AIM To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of contrast-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), as a single non-inva...
OBJECTIVE In this study, we evaluated the utility of 16-slice MDCT (multidetector computed tomography) to assess stent patency after coronary artery stenting. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective ECG-gated CT-angiography using 16-slice MDCT was performed in 52 consecutive patients with coronary artery stents. Qualitative assessment of 61 coronary stent lumens by MDCT is reported, and the reaso...
In this paper, an efficient implementation of the forward and inverse MDCT is proposed for even-length MDCT. The algorithm uses discrete cosine transform of type II (DCT-II) to compute the forward MDCT and their inverse DCT-III to compute the inverse MDCT. The lifting scheme is used to approximate multiplications appearing in the MDCT lattice structure where the dynamic range of the lifting coe...
Testing pragmatic competence has always posed daunting challenges to researchers and practitioners. As a step to address the gap in pragmatic testing, this paper delineates the procedural stages of developing and validating a context-sensitive Multiple Choice Discourse Completion Test (MDCT). Following a unitary view of validity, tenable argument and empirical evidence was accumulated to suppor...
INTRODUCTION Traumas are the third most common cause of death worldwide, after cardiovascular diseases and neoplasms, and the main cause of death of patients under 40 years of age. Contemporary image diagnosis of chest trauma uses chest X-ray (CXR), multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), transthoracic and transoesophageal ultrasound (USG), X-ray angiography and magnetic resonance. The aim of...
Coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality after cardiac transplantation and requires frequent surveillance with catheter-based coronary angiography (CCA). Multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) has been shown to be effective in assessing atherosclerosis in native coronary arteries. This article systematically reviews the literature to determi...
