Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography

233
DefinitionComputed Tomography (CT) of the genitourinary (GU) tract is a non-invasive imaging modality that utilizes X-rays and computer processing to generate detailed cross-sectional images of the urinary system, encompassing the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and adjacent structures such as the adrenal glands.PurposeCT scans of the GU tract serve several diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Diagnosis of Urinary Tract Diseases: Detects kidney stones, tumors, cysts, and congenital...

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning is an advanced cardiac imaging technique that utilizes CT technology, with or without intravenous (IV) contrast, to produce accurate cross-sectional virtual slices of specific areas of the heart, coronary circulation, and major blood vessels such as the aorta, pulmonary veins, and arteries. The computer processes these slices to generate three-dimensional images. Multidetector CT (MDCT) is a rapid form of CT scanning that captures multiple slices...

Introduction: MRI and CT scans are crucial advancements in medical imaging techniques, playing a vital role in diagnosing conditions related to the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Each scan serves distinct purposes, targets specific areas, and requires unique nursing duties.
Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computed Tomography

Background:

  • Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is a standard for joint imaging.
  • Flat-panel computed tomography (FPCT) is an emerging imaging technology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility of FPCT arthrography.
  • To quantitatively and qualitatively compare FPCT protocols with MDCT arthrography.

Main Methods:

  • Phantoms with varying iodine concentrations were scanned using MDCT and FPCT.
  • Quantitative analysis included CT numbers, radiation dose, and image noise.
  • Qualitative analysis of FPCT arthrography in animal joints assessed image quality and artifact.

Main Results:

  • FPCT and MDCT showed linear correlations between iodine concentration and CT numbers.
  • Image and depiction quality of 20-second FPCT scans were similar or superior to MDCT.
  • Successful FPCT arthrography was performed in all animal joint specimens.

Conclusions:

  • FPCT arthrography is a feasible imaging technique.
  • FPCT arthrography can achieve image quality comparable to MDCT arthrography.
