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...

Introduction: Recently, the use of nanoparticles has increased for many purpose in medicine. One of these is using the nano particles in shields structure to protect sensitive organs such as breast which placed inside the field of chest CT scan and receives high dose. The aim of this study was the use of nano Bi2O3 to making shield for protection breast in chest CT examination ...

CT number is one of the indicators in determining diagnosis disease, so it necessary to ensure level accuracy. The aim determine parameters kilovoltage and tube current value. Descriptive quantitative analytic research method with previously tested linearity suitability number. Furthermore, variation kilovoltage: 80kVp, 100kVp, 140kVp value 192mAs. After that, was continued: 80mAs, 100mAs, 140m...
