Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography

111
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...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Quantitative optical coherence tomography (OCT) studies require standardized reporting for reliable results.
  • Previous Advised Protocol for OCT Study Terminology and Elements (APOSTEL) recommendations needed updating.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To update consensus recommendations for reporting quantitative OCT study results.
  • To revise the existing APOSTEL guidelines.

Main Methods:

  • A modified Delphi method was employed.
  • PubMed search identified quantitative OCT studies (2015-2017).
  • Corresponding authors provided feedback via online surveys; expert panel reviewed and proposed changes.

Main Results:

  • 116 authors participated, leading to 12 accepted suggestions incorporated into a 9-point checklist.
  • Harmonized nomenclature for outer retinal layers and added measurement area for volume scans.
  • Consensus increased from 80% to over 90%.

Conclusions:

  • An expert-led guideline was established using a modified Delphi method.
  • The updated guideline covers study protocol, acquisition, analysis, nomenclature, and statistics.
  • Regular updates are essential to keep pace with research and practice advancements.
