Transcranial access using fluoroscopic flat panel detector CT navigation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
FPCT and navigation software on contemporary fluoroscopic units perform imaging of a quality comparable with conventional CT. They can accurately guide percutaneous procedures, providing live instrument visualization and the capability to re-image without patient transfer. FPCT navigation was used in the placement of a ventricular drain in a 62-year-old woman for subarachnoid-related hydrocephalus by using an otherwise standard bedside technique. Ventriculostomy catheter placement was technically successful without complication with a catheter at the foramen of Monro.

Treatment of supratentorial spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage using image-guided minimally invasive surgery: Initial experiences of a flat detector CT-based puncture planning and navigation system in the angiographic suite.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The intracerebral hemorrhage drainage through minimally invasive approach is emerging as an alternative for traditional craniotomy, due to its improved survival rate and reduced complication rate. In this study, we investigated the feasibility and safety of a flat detector CT-based puncture planning and navigation system for minimally invasive hematoma drainage on patient...
متن کاملEvaluation of the quality of CT-like images obtained using a commercial flat panel detector system
PURPOSE The development of flat panel detector technology has resulted in renewed interest in the possibility of generating CT-like images from rotational angiographic acquisitions. At least two commercial products now use cone beam reconstruction software in conjunction with flat panel detectors to produce such images. The purpose of the work presented here is to report on image quality obtain...
متن کاملAn Efficient Ring Artifact Reduction Method Based on Projection Data for Micro-CT Images
Ring artifacts are very troublesome in a flat-panel based micro computed tomography (micro-CT) since they might severely degrade visibility of the micro-CT images. Unlike ring artifacts in other types of micro-CTs such as image-intensifier based micro-CT, ring artifacts in a flat-panel detector based micro-CT are hardly removable since the sensitivity of the pixel elements in a flat-panel detec...
متن کاملEvaluation of a metal artifacts reduction algorithm applied to postinterventional flat panel detector CT imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Flat panel detector CT images are degraded by streak artifacts caused by radiodense implanted materials such as coils or clips. A new metal artifacts reduction prototype algorithm has been used to minimize these artifacts. The application of this new metal artifacts reduction algorithm was evaluated for flat panel detector CT imaging performed in a routine clinical settin...
متن کاملFlat detector angio-CT following intra-arterial therapy of acute ischemic stroke: identification of hemorrhage and distinction from contrast accumulation due to blood-brain barrier disruption.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Flat panel detector CT in the angiography suite may be valuable for the detection of intracranial hematomas; however, abnormal contrast enhancement frequently mimics hemorrhage. We aimed to assess the accuracy of flat panel detector CT in detecting/excluding intracranial bleeding after endovascular stroke therapy and whether it was able to reliably differentiate hemorrhag...
