Advances in Computed Tomography Evaluation of Skull Base Diseases
Introduction Computed tomography (CT) is a key component in the evaluation of skull base diseases. With its ability to clearly delineate the osseous anatomy, CT can provide not only important tips to diagnosis but also key information for surgical planning. Objectives The purpose of this article is to describe some of the main CT imaging features that contribute to the diagnosis of skull base t...
متن کاملControlled Cardiac Computed Tomography
Cardiac computed tomography (CT) has been a hot topic for years because of the clinical importance of cardiac diseases and the rapid evolution of CT systems. In this paper, we propose a novel strategy for controlled cardiac CT that may effectively reduce image artifacts due to cardiac and respiratory motions. Our approach is radically different from existing ones and is based on controlling the...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiac Function Using Fast Computed Tomography
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality in Western society but at its early phase may manifest as subtle alterations in coronary epicardial or microvascular function, including endothelial dysfunction, abnormal perfusion or permeability, and remodeling, which may precede clinical manifestation of vascular disease. These modifications might be associated with subclinical decline in ...

متن کاملEvaluation of Metal Artifact Reduction software in Computed Tomography
Introduction: The image quality of computed tomography (CT) can be seriously lowered by metal implants of patients. These implants are known to exert a significant impact on diagnostic accuracy due to artifacts. The current study aimed to assess the usefulness of Metal Artifact Reduction (MAR) software in the reduction of metal artifacts, in comparison to iterative rec...
