随着CT成像技术的不断发展,其在临床中的应用越来越广泛,而临床对于CT诊断的要求也不断提高。一直以来,CT检查的辐射剂量及图像质量的改善都是人们关注的热点。早期,降低辐射剂量的主要方法就是降低管电压、降低管电流、增加螺距及减少扫描次数等,但这些方法在降低辐射剂量的同时也在一定程度上降低了图像质量。随着CT技术的不断改进,不同类型的重建算法及扫描方式也随之出现,能够通过不同的重建算法来改善图像质量,从而有助于 相似文献

目的探讨CT轴位扫描应用于腰椎间盘扫描以降低辐射剂量的可行性及其临床应用价值。方法随机抽取正常BMI的60例志愿者行CT腰椎间盘检查,在其他参数均相同情况下分别进行常规剂量(270 mA)和低剂量(180 mA、135 mA)扫描,比较两种不同低剂量CT扫描所得图像与常规剂量的图像质量差异,以及发现椎间盘病变的差异。结果在扫描图像质量方面,两种不同低剂量与常规剂量扫描有统计学差异(P<0.05)。但在诊断疾病方面,两种不同低剂量扫描与常规剂量扫描无统计学差异(P>0.05)。在满足诊断需要的同时,患者接受的辐射剂量分别降低36.5%及54.0%。结论轴位扫描应用于腰椎间盘CT扫描具有一定的可行性,并可大幅度降低患者辐射剂量。 相似文献

目的:对比评价常规CT扫描与胸部能谱成像应用于临床检查时的射线辐射剂量与图像质量。方法:将医院2017年1月~4月收治因病情需要行胸部CT检查的52例患者作为研究对象,患者均行常规CT平扫与胸部能谱成像扫描,并对两种CT扫描方式的辐射剂量与图像质量进行比较,以评价最佳扫描方式。结果:不同CT扫描方式比较可见,常规CT平扫与能谱动脉期成像的辐射剂量及图像质量相当(P0.05);而能谱静脉期成像虽然比常规CT平扫有较高辐射剂量,但所提供的图像质量也更佳(P0.05)。结论:与120k Vp常规CT平扫相比,胸部动脉期能谱成像的辐射剂相当,胸部静脉期能谱成像虽然有较高辐射剂量,但所获得的图像质量,可在临床酌情考虑应用。 相似文献

体型特异性剂量估计的最新概念及临床应用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
CT检查时设置扫描参数的原则是在得到临床诊断可接受的图像质量的前提下,尽可能降低辐射剂量。而患者所接受的辐射剂量,不仅与CT设备的输出剂量有关,也与患者本身体型相关。现有的CT设备提供的辐射剂量信息,如容积CT剂量指数(CTDIvol),是基于固定大小聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯模型测量所得,并未考虑到患者的不同体型信息。美国医学物理师学会(AAPM)在204和220报告中提出了一种新的患者辐射剂量估算方法——体型特异性剂量估计(SSDE),综合考虑了CT辐射输出量和患者体型信息,能准确评估患者辐射剂量。本文对SSDE的最新概念和临床应用进展进行综述。 相似文献

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to assess the potential for iterative reconstruction algorithms to be used to reduce patient radiation dose for computed tomography pulmonary angiography examinations while maintaining diagnostic image quality.Materials and MethodsThis two-stage study first considered current computed tomography pulmonary angiography image quality through an audit of current practice. Secondly, an experimental design was adopted using an anthropomorphic phantom with the addition of contrast-enhanced tubes to mimic pulmonary arteries. The radiation dose was reduced by incrementally reducing the milliampere seconds value from the standard institutional protocol, and subjective and objective (contrast-to-noise ratio [CNR] and signal-to-noise ratio [SNR]) quality measures were recorded for each exposure and reconstruction.ResultsA sample of 10 patients met the inclusion criteria for the audit, and a mean CNR of 44.2 and an SNR of 47.9 were established as baseline quality. A clear positive correlation was identified between the number of iterations and objective quality measures (CNR [r = 0.78, P < .001] and SNR [r = 0.78, P < .001]). No relationship was identified between the subjective measures and either radiation exposure (milliampere seconds) or the number of iterations. Findings suggest that a potential reduction in effective dose of 1.46 mSv (57.0%) is possible with no associated loss of image quality with the use of iterative reconstruction.ConclusionFindings suggest that the potential dose reduction may be as great as 57%; however, further work is required to confirm this in a patient population. 相似文献

BackgroundCT simulator for radiation therapy aims to produce high-quality images for dose calculation and delineation of target and organs at risk in the process of treatment planning. Selection of CT imaging protocols that achieve a desired image quality while minimizing patient dose depends on technical CT parameters and their relationship with image quality and radiation dose. For similar imaging protocols using comparable technical CT parameters, there are also variations in image quality metrics between different CT simulator models. Understanding the relationship and variation is important for selecting appropriate imaging protocol and standardizing QC process. Here, we proposed an automated method to determine the relationship between image quality and radiation dose for various CT technical parameters.Material and MethodThe impact of scan parameters on various aspects of image quality and volumetric CT dose index for a Philips Brilliance Big Bore and a Toshiba Aquilion One CT scanners were determined by using commercial phantom and automated image quality analysis software and cylindrical radiation dose phantom.Results and DiscussionBoth scanners had very similar and satisfactory performance based on the diagnostic acceptance criteria recommended by ACR, International Atomic Energy Agency, and American Association of Physicists in Medicine. However, our results showed a compromise between different image quality components such as low-contrast and spatial resolution with the change of scanning parameters and revealed variations between the two scanners on their image quality performance. Measurement using a generic phantom and analysis by automated software was unbiased and efficient.ConclusionThis method provides information that can be used as a baseline for CT scanner image quality and dosimetric QC for different CT scanner models in a given institution or across sites. 相似文献

Noninvasive visualization of the heart by CT is highly accurate and useful, but its association with ionizing radiation and
the potential risk of cancer induction has raised concerns. Dose-saving algorithms, new CT scanners, and scanning techniques
have been developed to effectively reduce the amount of radiation exposure without deterioration of image quality. Furthermore,
additional strategies for dose reduction can be pursued in daily practice following the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable)
principle. However, there still is a high additional dose-saving potential in a consequent application of dose reduction measures,
and we recommend individually adapted scan protocols to obtain cardiac CT studies with optimal diagnostic image quality and
lowest possible radiation dose. 相似文献

ObjectiveThis study aims at investigating the feasibility of replacing an antiscatter grid with an air gap to achieve dose reduction for lumbar spine radiography while retaining image quality at an acceptable diagnostic level.MethodsFrontal and lateral projections of lumbar spine radiographic examinations were performed on an anthropomorphic phantom. Nongrid images of both the computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR) systems with air gap thickness ranging from 0 to 25 cm were produced and compared with their corresponding grid images. Dose measurements using thermoluminescent dosimeters at the ovary and testes regions of the phantom were conducted. The image quality of all the images was evaluated by five radiographers using image quality score and visual grading analysis tests. Data on dose measurements and image quality tests were input for statistical analysis. The dose area product (DAP) of all the examinations was recorded and input for the computation of effective doses using a PC-based Monte Carlo program (PCXMC 2.0; STUK, Helsinki, Finland).ResultsSignificant dose reduction effects on the ovaries of 60.2%–74.1% and 55.1%–73.3% were found, respectively, at the frontal and lateral projections of nongrid lumbar spine examinations compared with their corresponding grid ones in both the CR and DR systems. Results on the image quality score and visual grading analysis tests showed that nongrid images with 10-cm and 5-cm of air gap thicknesses respective to the frontal and lateral images of the lumbar spine were rated with the highest scores. In general, a dose reduction effect using the air gap method was found to be more pronounced in the CR system compared with the DR system. Nevertheless, the CR system delivered a 2.4–4.5 times higher ovary dose respective to the frontal and lateral projections of lumbar spine examinations compared with the DR system.ConclusionsTen and 5 centimeters were found to be the optimal air gap thicknesses respective to the frontal and lateral lumbar spine radiographic examinations of the tested Rando phantom (Alderson Laboratories, Stamford, CT) in both the CR and DR systems. Significant dose reduction effects on both the ovary and testes regions of the nongrid examinations were shown. The effective dose computed from PCMCX 2.0 reflected that the risk of cancer induction was halved when an antiscatter grid was replaced by the nongrid method with an optimal air gap thickness in the tested examinations. Further reduction on cancer risk could be achieved by using DR instead of the CR system. 相似文献
