Spiral CT scanning of the paranasal sinuses.
Because of the interest in reducing the time and radiation required for screening sinuses with CT, we compared the quality of conventional coronal CT images with coronally reconstructed, axially acquired spiral CT images. The spiral reconstructions compared favorably with the conventional images and had significantly less motion and dental amalgam artifacts.
متن کاملImaging of the paranasal sinuses and in-office CT.
Since the introduction of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) in the United States in 1985, the information gained from imaging has proved imperative in understanding regional morphology and guidance of surgical procedures. More than 20 years later, the importance of imaging continues to be the anatomic detail afforded by this technology, the roadmap it provides in planning the surgery, ...
متن کاملMucoceles of the paranasal sinuses: MR imaging with CT correlation.
The MR findings in six cases of paranasal sinus mucoceles are described. Two basic MR appearances were encountered: either moderate to marked signal hypointensity in the expanded sinuses on T1- and T2-weighted images (four patients) or moderate to marked signal hyperintensity on T1- and T2-weighted images (two patients). These patterns appear to represent inspissated or hydrated sinus contents,...
متن کاملTailored low dose three-dimensional CT of paranasal sinuses.
A technique for three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) of the paranasal sinuses was evaluated. The influence of milliamperage and reconstruction algorithms on image quality was studied in a phantom. Eleven patients with bony abnormalities of the paranasal sinuses underwent CT to assess the clinical impact of 3D CT protocol. Contiguous 1.5-mm sections obtained at 120 kVp/175 mA/1.9 sec ...
متن کاملImage Optimization and reduction of radiation dose in CT of the paranasal sinuses
Introduction: Since demand for computed tomography (CT) examinations is growing, patients are exposed more frequently to ionizing radiation. To reduce the dose delivered to patients in each scan, CT technologists can change the image acquisition parameters. However, this reduces image quality. Present study aimed to optimize and reduce radiation dose in a CT of the paranasal si...
