Abdominal perfusion computed tomography.
The purpose of this article is to provide an up to date review on the spectrum of applications of perfusion computed tomography (CT) in the abdomen. New imaging techniques have been developed with the objective of obtaining a structural and functional analysis of different organs. Recently, perfusion CT has aroused the interest of many researchers who are studying the applicability of imaging m...
متن کاملPerfusion Patterns of Ischemic Stroke on Computed Tomography Perfusion
CT perfusion (CTP) has been applied increasingly in research of ischemic stroke. However, in clinical practice, it is still a relatively new technology. For neurologists and radiologists, the challenge is to interpret CTP results properly in the context of the clinical presentation. In this article, we will illustrate common CTP patterns in acute ischemic stroke using a case-based approach. The...
متن کاملDetection of liver metastases from endocrine tumors: a prospective comparison of somatostatin receptor scintigraphy, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
PURPOSE To compare the respective sensitivity of somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the detection of liver metastases from well-differentiated gastroenteropancreatic endocrine tumor (WDGEP ET) patients. To define predictive factors for "high-sensitivity SRS." PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-four patients with WDGEP ET underwe...
متن کاملPerfusion computed tomography in transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND Diffusion- and perfusion-weighted imaging after transient ischemic attack (TIA) has been well studied, while less data exist on perfusion computed tomographic (PCT) imaging. OBJECTIVES To examine the frequency of PCT abnormalities in patients with anterior circulation TIA and to identify factors associated with the presence of PCT abnormality. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTIN...
متن کاملComputed Tomography Perfusion Is Beyond Prime Time
Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) is beyond prime time, ready for use to select patients with acute ischemic stroke for intravenous and endovascular reperfusion therapies in routine clinical practice. After 2 decades of fervent stroke research using advanced imaging and revascularization techniques, recent stroke trials astutely combined imaging and therapeutic expertise, likely the recipe fo...
