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 کاملOptimization of the monochromatic energy in imaging the celiac artery with dual energy spectral CT angiography
To identify the optimal monochromatic energy of the dual energy spectral CT Angiography (CTA) of celiac artery with high image quality. 32 patients were tested by the contrast-enhanced CT with the dual energy spectral imaging mode. Based on the polychromatic data, images of celiac artery were reconstructed at the optimal monochromatic energy, 70 keV monochromatic energy level and the 140 kVp tu...
متن کاملLossy compression should not be used in certain imaging applications such as chest radiography. Against the proposition.
Computational techniques are frequently used to compress image data so that transmission and storage requirements are reduced. If the computational techniques result in no loss in image resolution, the technique is referred to as lossless compression. Greater compression of data may yield some loss in spatial or temporal resolution, and is referred to as lossy compression. In some radiologic ex...
متن کاملTemporal and spectral imaging with micro-CT.
PURPOSE Micro-CT is widely used for small animal imaging in preclinical studies of cardiopulmonary disease, but further development is needed to improve spatial resolution, temporal resolution, and material contrast. We present a technique for visualizing the changing distribution of iodine in the cardiac cycle with dual source micro-CT. METHODS The approach entails a retrospectively gated du...
متن کاملThe Fundamental Reasons Why Laptop Computers should not be Used on Your Lap
As a tendency to use new technologies, gadgets such as laptop computers are becoming more popular among students, teachers, businessmen and office workers. Today laptops are a great tool for education and learning, work and personal multimedia. Millions of men, especially those in the reproductive age, are frequently using their laptop computers on the lap (thigh). Over the past several years, ...
