On two versions of a 3π algorithm for spiral CT

چکیده

A 3π algorithm is obtained in which all the derivatives are confined to a detector array. Distance weighting of backprojection coefficients of the algorithm is studied. A numerical experiment indicates that avoiding differentiation along the source trajectory improves spatial resolution. Another numerical experiment shows that the terms depending on the non-standard distance weighting 1/|x − y(s)| can no longer be ignored.

Conventional and spiral CT dose indices in Yazd general hospitals, Iran

  ABSTRACT   Background: While the benefits of Computed Tomography (CT) are well known in accurate diagnosis, those benefits are not risk free. CT is a device with higher patient dose in comparison with other conventional radiological procedures. Is the reduction of exposures by requiring optimization of CT procedures [a principle concern in radiological protection]? In this study, the radiatio...

Evaluation of Absorbed Dose of Critical Organ in Rando Phantom under Head, Abdomen and Pelvis Spiral CT Scan by Thermo Luminescent Dosimetery - TLD

Background & Objectives: Computed tomography (CT) represents 11% of all diagnostic radiology procedures but it contributes to almost 67% of the total effective dose to the human population. In head and neck CT which consist of 1/3 of total CT scans, other critical organs such as lenses and thyroid are in the radiation field. Also in the abdomen and pelvis scan, irradiation of ovaries is unavoid...
