Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System V: CT

56
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...

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...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System VI: Calcium -Scoring CT

Calcium-Scoring CT ScanA calcium-scoring CT scan, also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries. This test assesses the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to cardiovascular events such as angina, heart failure, and sudden cardiac arrest.A calcium-scoring CT scan is generally recommended for individuals at intermediate risk of CAD without symptoms. It includes:Men aged 40-75 and women aged 50-75: Especially those with a...

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

Background:

  • Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is crucial for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD).
  • Image reconstruction algorithms significantly impact CCTA diagnostic accuracy.
  • Deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) offers potential for improved image quality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the objective and subjective image quality of CCTA reconstructed with DLIR.
  • To compare DLIR performance against the adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction-V (ASiR-V) algorithm.
  • To assess the correlation between DLIR and ASiR-V in CAD detection.

Main Methods:

  • Fifty-one patients undergoing CCTA were prospectively enrolled.
  • Fourteen datasets per patient were reconstructed using DLIR (three strengths) and ASiR-V (10-100%).
  • Objective (SNR, CNR) and subjective (Likert scale) image quality were assessed; correlation analyzed using Pearson coefficient.

Main Results:

  • DLIR did not affect vascular attenuation.
  • DLIR_H demonstrated the lowest noise and highest objective image quality, comparable to ASiR-V 100%.
  • DLIR_M achieved the highest subjective image quality and comparable objective quality to ASiR-V 80-90%; DLIR and ASiR-V showed strong correlation (r=0.874) for CAD assessment.

Conclusions:

  • DLIR, particularly DLIR_M, significantly improves CCTA image quality.
  • DLIR demonstrates a very strong correlation with ASiR-V for diagnosing CAD.
  • DLIR represents a promising advancement in CCTA image reconstruction.
