Low-dose 4D cardiac imaging in small animals using dual source micro-CT.
Micro-CT is widely used in preclinical studies, generating substantial interest in extending its capabilities in functional imaging applications such as blood perfusion and cardiac function. However, imaging cardiac structure and function in mice is challenging due to their small size and rapid heart rate. To overcome these challenges, we propose and compare improvements on two strategies for c...
متن کاملCT imaging in small animals
In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in the availability of cross-sectional imaging techniques in veterinary medicine. CT is now readily accessible in many veterinary universities and referral institutions and is gaining acceptance for the investigation of many diseases. The last 10 years have seen a significant increase in CT related clinical research and various comparative studie...
متن کاملExploration the Method of Low Dose Coronary Artery Imaging with Dual-Source CT
Objective: On the premise that the image quality meets the requirements of clinical diagnosis, we explored the methods to reduce the radiation dose of coronary artery imaging with Dual-Source CT (DSCT). Methods: We randomly selected 200 patients with coronary heat disease (BIM<25kg/m2), applied the scanning technology of regulating the dose of heart electric pulse (AUTO) on the 100 patients in ...
متن کاملEstimation of fetal absorbed dose from low-dose attenuation-correction CT in PET / CT imaging by using the Body Builder Phantom
One of the methods of studying the physiology and metabolism of important tissues such as the heart, brain and cancer tumors is the use of PET/CT System. A small number of patients are pregnant women who undergo a PET/CT scan due to lack of knowledge about pregnancy or due to dire clinical need. The final dose received by the fetus is based on three factors: the absorbed dose of the fetal tissu...
متن کاملLow-Dose Micro-CT Imaging for Vascular Segmentation and Analysis Using Sparse-View Acquisitions
The aim of this study is to investigate whether reliable and accurate 3D geometrical models of the murine aortic arch can be constructed from sparse-view data in vivo micro-CT acquisitions. This would considerably reduce acquisition time and X-ray dose. In vivo contrast-enhanced micro-CT datasets were reconstructed using a conventional filtered back projection algorithm (FDK), the image space r...
