Dual-Energy Subtraction X-Ray Digital Tomosynthesis: Basic Physical Evaluation
The present study was performed to determine the potential of applying dual-energy subtraction (DES) digital tomosynthesis to basic physical evaluations. Volumetric X-ray DES digital tomosysnthesis was used to obtain an image of a detectability phantom (an artificial lesion). The image quality of DES digital tomosynthesis was compared to that of DES radiography. The purpose of this study was to...
متن کاملDual-energy subtraction for contrast-enhanced digital breast tomosynthesis
We have developed a dual-energy subtraction technique for contrast-enhanced breast tomosynthesis. The imaging system consists of 48 photon-counting linear detectors which are precisely aligned with the focal spot of the x-ray source. The x-ray source and the digital detectors are translated across the breast in a continuous linear motion; each linear detector collects an image at a distinct ang...
متن کاملX-ray digital linear tomosynthesis imaging
Aims: The purpose of this review includes the following: 1) to identify indications for volumetric X-ray digital linear tomosynthesis by using a filtered back projection (FBP) algorithm and 2) to compare X-ray digital linear tomosynthesis, X-ray digital radiography, conventional tomography, and computed tomography. Review: The methods include the following: 1) an overview of the tomosynthesis s...
متن کاملTemporal Subtraction Versus Dual-Energy Contrast-Enhanced Digital Breast Tomosynthesis: A Pilot Study
In contrast-enhanced DBT (CE-DBT), breast lesion vascularity is characterized by administrating an iodinated vascular contrast agent. In this work, a combined temporal and dual-energy (DE) subtraction CE-DBT technique was performed in 4 women with mammographic findings that warranted biopsy. Lesion enhancement characteristics and morphology obtained with both CE-DBT techniques are correlated to...
متن کاملDual-energy contrast-enhanced digital breast tomosynthesis--a feasibility study.
Contrast-enhanced digital breast tomosynthesis (CE-DBT) is a novel modality for imaging breast lesion morphology and vascularity. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of dual-energy subtraction as a technique for CE-DBT (a temporal subtraction CE-DBT technique has been described previously). As CE-DBT evolves, exploration of alternative image acquisition techniques will contri...
