Differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic masses with the quantitative analysis of spectral CT imaging: Initial results
Background: To retrospectively evaluate whether quantitative information derived from spectral imaging can improve the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic masses including pancreatic solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasms (SPENs), mucin- producing cysts and pseudocysts. Materials and Methods: From June 2015 to October 2017, 56 patients (22 pseudocysts, 18 mucin-producing cysts and 1...
متن کاملImaging focal liver lesions in children
There is a wide differential diagnosis of focal liver lesions in children including inflammatory lesions, cystic lesions and benign and malignant neoplasms. Imaging confirms the presence of a focal liver lesion, assesses the extent of disease and characterises the lesion. Initial ultrasound findings will determine if other imaging modalities are required, which include nuclear medicine (NM), co...
متن کاملOptimal imaging of focal liver lesions
Modern diagnostic imaging allows the accurate identification of different focal liver lesions. Ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound are widely available, and contrast injection allows the classification of most lesions as benign or malignant. CT is a robust, widely available and easy-to-use imaging technique that allows studies to be conducted in uncooperative patients. Owing to differen...
متن کاملPreliminary Application of High-Definition CT Gemstone Spectral Imaging in Hand and Foot Tendons
OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility of visualizing hand and foot tendon anatomy and disorders by Gemstone Spectral Imaging (GSI) high-definition CT (HDCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-five patients who suffered from hand or foot pain were scanned with GSI mode HDCT and MRI. Spectrum analysis was used to select the monochromatic images that provide the optimal contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) fo...
