Comparing IDREAM as an Iterative Reconstruction Algorithm against In Filtered Back Projection in Computed Tomography
Introduction: Recent studies of Computed Tomography (CT) conducted on patient dose reduction have recommended using an iterative reconstruction algorithm and mA (mili-Ampere) dose modulation. The current study aimed to evaluate Iterative Dose Reduction Algorithm (IDREAM) as an iterative reconstruction algorithm. Material and Methods: Two CT p...
متن کاملPatient dose and image quality in low-dose abdominal CT: a comparison between iterative reconstruction and filtered back projection.
BACKGROUND In computed tomography (CT), there is increasing concern for potential CT radiation hazards. Several raw-data-based iterative reconstruction techniques attempt to facilitate low-dose imaging without compromising image quality, which raises the question whether these techniques may allow further dose reduction. PURPOSE To compare image quality of iterative reconstruction and filtere...
متن کاملIterative reconstruction in head CT: image quality of routine and low-dose protocols in comparison with standard filtered back-projection.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE IR has recently demonstrated its capacity to reduce noise and permit dose reduction in abdominal and thoracic CT applications. The purpose of our study was to assess the potential benefit of IR in head CT by comparing objective and subjective image quality with standard FBP at various dose levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety consecutive patients were randomly assigned ...
متن کاملReduced-dose low-voltage chest CT angiography with Sinogram-affirmed iterative reconstruction versus standard-dose filtered back projection.
PURPOSE To evaluate image quality of low-voltage chest computed tomographic (CT) angiography with raw data-based iterative reconstruction (sonogram-affirmed iterative reconstruction) in comparison with image quality of standard-dose standard-voltage filtered back projection (FBP) CT. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and the informed ...
متن کاملEffect of iterative reconstruction on image quality of low-dose chest computed tomography.
AIM To assess quality and radiologists' preference of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) reconstructed with filtered back projection (FBP) or Iterative Reconstruction. METHODS Thin-section LDCTs (1-mm thick contiguous images; 120 kVp; 30 mAs) of 38 consecutive unselected patients, evaluated for various clinical indications, were reconstructed by four different reconstruction algorithms: FBP ...
