چکیده
Figure 3: Spiral-In and Spiral-Out raw images in a human brain (24cm x 24cm, a-c) and cylindrical phantom placed perpendicular to B0 (6cm x 6cm, d-f). The various TEs are a) Spiral-Out 18ms, b) Spiral-In 30ms, c) Spiral-In 42ms, d) Spiral-Out 7.4ms, e) SpiralIn 30ms and f) Spiral-In 52.6ms. Figure 1: R2* map of cylindrical phantom filled with tubes containing materials with varying R2* (arrow indicates tube containing air) Tubes were placed perpendicular to B0.

Fabrication of Saddle-Shaped Surfaces by Flame Forming Process
The flame forming process is widely used to manufacture ship hull plates. The saddle-shaped surfaces have different curvatures in perpendicular angles of planes and the manufacturers face an anti-clastic curvature. In this article, the manufacturing of saddle-shaped surfaces utilizing the flame forming process is investigated. The spiral irradiating scheme is used for forming. In order to study...
متن کاملProspective-triggered high-pitch spiral versus sequential dual-source CT coronary angiography: comparison of image quality and radiation dose
Background: Prospectively electrocardiography (ECG)-triggered high-pitch spiral coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a unique scan mode for dual-source CT (DSCT). Our reports aim to compare image quality and radiation dose of CCTA using high-pitch spiral or sequential acquisition mode in patients with low and stable heart rates. Materials and Methods: Patients with low and stable ...
متن کاملAssessment the effect of CT localizer parameter on radiation dose and image quality of GE CT spiral images, A phantom study
Introduction: Using computed tomography (CT) is increasing significantly in Iran and worldwide. Reduction of CT's radiation dose is a critical concern. The aim of this study was evaluating the effect of localizer kVp on spiral CT images when the tube current modulation (TCM) is activated. Materials and Methods: A special wedding cake phantom with circular in...
متن کاملPatient doses from X-ray computed tomography examinations by a single-array detector unit: Axial versus spiral mode
Background: X-ray computed tomography (CT) examinations deliver a significant amount of radiation doses to patients comparing to conventional radiography examinations. The objective of the current study was to analyze and investigate the average patient received dose from axial and spiral CT exams in a medical imaging center. Material and Methods: In this study, the patient imaging tec...
متن کاملAn experimental study of axial load transfer mechanisms of cable bolts using axially split embedment apparatus
The load transfer mechanisms of cable bolts differ from those for normal rebar bolts. The cable bolts used in mines are basically steel strands with different constructions depending on the number of wires or elements and the way they are laid. Tendon bolts (rebar and cable) are normally evaluated for their strength and load transfer properties. The tendon strength can be evaluated by the tensi...
