Use of low-dose contrast agent in cerebral angiography produces high-quality diagnostic images.
The present study was aimed to study feasibility of low-dose contrast agent in cerebral CT angiography (CTA) to alleviate some side effects and costs associated with routine doses of contrast agent. Sixty patients suspected to have cerebral artery disease were randomly selected to receive either low-dose (60 mL) contrast agent or routine-dose (100 mL) contrast agent. CTA included transverse ima...
متن کاملReducing Radiation Dose in Pediatric Diagnostic Fluoroscopy.
PURPOSE To assess radiation dose in common pediatric diagnostic fluoroscopy procedures and determine the efficacy of dose tracking and dose reduction training to reduce radiation use. METHODS Fluoroscopy time and radiation dose area product (DAP) were recorded for upper GIs (UGI), voiding cystourethrograms (VCUGs), and barium enemas (BEs) during a six-month period. The results were presented ...
متن کاملEstimation of the effective dose to the radiologists during fluoroscopy or angiography of abdominal viscera
ABSTRACTBackground: as fluoroscopy or different angiographies are usually evaluated using TL dosimeter. Thismethod is a time-consuming procedure therefore, radiologists are usually worried and unawareof their exact radiation dose received during each fluoroscopy or angiography. In this study, anew trend for quick estimation of effective dose based on measuring air-absorbed dose of thescattered ...
متن کاملOverlying fluoroscopy and preacquired CT angiography for road-mapping in cerebral angiography.
We describe our preliminary experience using a road-mapping procedure that involves combining preacquired CTA with real-time fluoroscopy. This maneuver facilitates navigation in supra-aortic vessels from the arch to skull base levels. It requires less contrast than is used for traditional road-mapping while potentially reducing the hazard of thromboembolic events associated with direct catheter...
متن کامل3D cerebral angiography: radiation dose comparison with digital subtraction angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE As the use of 3D rotational angiography (3D RA) for the evaluation of cerebral vasculature becomes more widespread, it is important to evaluate this imaging method's effect on patient radiation dose. The purpose of the study is to measure 3D RA radiation dose as compared with biplanar digital subtraction angiography (DSA). METHODS The distribution and peak skin dose wer...
