Determination of Principal Permeability Directions in Reservoir Rocks from Micro-CT Data
The routine measurement of direction-dependent reservoir rock properties like permeability often takes place along the axial direction of core samples. As permeability is a tensor property of porous materials, it should be fully described by a tensor matrix or by three main permeabilities in principal directions. Due to compaction, cementation, and other lithification processes, which take plac...
متن کاملCoronary CT angiography.
Advances in multidetector CT (MDCT) technology with submillimeter slice collimation and high temporal resolution permit contrast-enhanced imaging of coronary arteries and coronary plaque during a single breath hold. Appropriate patient preparation, detailed technical and technological knowledge with regard to recognition of typical imaging artifacts (such as beam hardening or motion artifacts),...
متن کاملCoronary CT angiography in percutaneous coronary intervention
Technical advances have enabled multidetector CT to become the non-invasive modality of choice for coronary imaging. Recent clinical literature has supported the power of CCTA using 64-slice multidector CT scanners in the detection and ruling out of significant (> 50%) coronary artery disease, with an average negative predictive value of 98% on a per-patient basis [6-8]. With the capability of ...
متن کاملCT of coronary artery disease.
Technical innovation is rapidly improving the clinical utility of cardiac computed tomography (CT) and will increasingly address current technical limitations, especially the association of this test with relatively high levels of radiation. Guidelines for appropriate indications are in place and are evolving, with an increasing evidence base to ensure the appropriate use of this modality. New ...
متن کاملconus artery in coronary ct angiography
conclusions in most cases, the conus artery can be visualized in cardiac ct. a description of the conus artery should be a part of the standard clinical coronary ct angiography description. objectives to examine whether it is possible to visualize the conus artery in multi-slice computed tomography (ct). patients and methods in 79 consecutive patients (aged 56 ± 12.9 years; 13 women), 64-slice ...
