Characterization of Solid Renal Masses using 64-Slice Multidetector CT Scanner
The purpose of our study was to assess the role of a 64-slice multidetector CT (MDCT) scanner in the characterization of different solid renal masses, using a simplified approach to correct the postenhancement attenuation values. The study included 96 consecutive adults (58 men, 38 women) with renal masses; 93 with unilateral and three with bilateral masses. All of our patients underwent multip...
متن کاملIsolated pericardial hydatid cyst: anatomical details on 64 slice multidetector CT scanner.
DESCRIPTION Cardiac involvement is uncommon (0.02–2%) in hydatid disease and the most common location is in the left ventricle, followed by interventricular septum and right ventricle. The clinical presentation of hydatid disease depends on the location of the cysts, and diagnosis is usually made by CT and/or high-resolution MRI. We are presenting an extremely rare manifestation of hydatid dise...
متن کاملCalculation of the Scattered Radiation Profile in 64 Slice CT Scanners Using Experimental Measurement
Introduction: One of the most important parameters in x-ray CT imaging is the noise induced by detected scattered radiation. The detected scattered radiation is completely dependent on the scanner geometry as well as size, shape and material of the scanned object. The magnitude and spatial distribution of the scattered radiation in x-ray CT should be quantified for development of robust scatter...
متن کاملDetection of Postcoronary Stent Complication: Utility of 64-Slice Multidetector CT
Coronary stent fracture is a known complication of coronary arterial stent placements. Multiple long-term risks are also associated with drug eluting stents. 64-slice multidetector CT (MDCT) coronary angiography has been shown to detect poststent complications such as instent stenosis, thrombosis, stent migration and stent fractures. We report a case of stent fracture in a patient who underwent...
متن کاملA new method for experimental characterisation of scattered radiation in 64-slice CT scanner
PURPOSE The consummate 64-slice CT scanner that spawns a new generation of non-invasive diagnostic tool, however revolutionary, brings with it the incidental by-product that is scattered radiation. The extended detector aperture capability in the 64-slcie CT scanner allows the effects of scattered radiation to be more pronounced and therefore demands that the magnitude and spatial distribution ...
