Reducing radiation doses in female breast and lung during CT examinations of thorax: A new technique in two scanners
Background: Chest CT is a commonly used examination for the diagnosis of lung diseases, but a breast within the scanned field is nearly never the organ of interest.Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the female breast and lung doses using split and standard protocols in chest CT scanning.Materials and Methods: The sliced chest and breast female phantoms were used. CT exams were p...
متن کاملEvaluation of the gray level in CBCT systems and its relationship with HU in CT Scanners
Introduction: Cone-beam CT (CBCT) is an imaging system which offers three-dimensional (3D), multiplanar images and has many advantages over computed tomography (CT) including shorter acquisition times for the resolution desired in dentistry, lower radiation dose to the patient, reasonable price and higher spatial resolution but CBCT scanners are unable to display actual Hounsf...
متن کاملValidation of computed tomography-based attenuation correction of deviation between theoretical and actual values for four computed tomography scanners
Objective: In this study, we aimed to validate the accuracy of computed tomography-based attenuation correction (CTAC) using the bilinear scaling method.Methods: The measured attenuation coefficient (μm) was compared to a theoretical attenuation coefficient (μt ) using four different CT scanners and an RMI 467 phantom. The effective energy of the CT beam X-rays was calculated, using the aluminu...

Background and purpose:The risk of developing breast cancer during the liftime of females is 12.5% (about 1 in 8). Ïn addition hormone replacement therapy is part of the preventive measure in women at their menopausal period. Studies have revealed that screening mammography changes with age, mammographyic density and family history of breast cancer. This study was designed to evaluate the bre...
متن کاملApplication of Different methods for Reducing Radiation Dose to Breast during MDCT
The increased use of computed tomography (CT) and its high radiation dose have led to great concerns about its potential for radiation induced cancer risks. Breast is a radiosensitive tissue based on tissue weighting factors assigned by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). Moreover, the dose is maximal on the surface of the patient. Therefore, strategies should be tak...
