Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography

420
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...

Computed Tomography

9.0K
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...

Electron Microscope Tomography and Single-particle Reconstruction

2.9K
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) can be used to determine the 3D structure of biological samples with the help of techniques such as electron microscope tomography and single-particle reconstruction. While single-particle reconstruction can examine macromolecules and macromolecular complexes in vitro conditions only, tomography permits the study of cell components or small cells in vivo.
Electron Tomography
Electron tomography can be performed either in TEM or STEM (scanning transmission...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Orthopedics
    • Pediatric Radiology

    Background:

    • Conventional computed tomographic (CT) imaging is a standard diagnostic tool.
    • Interpreting complex 3D skeletal structures from 2D CT slices can be challenging.
    • Craniofacial surgeons have utilized 3D reformations since 1982.

    Observation:

    • The study evaluates the application of 3D reformations derived from conventional CT scans.
    • This technique was applied to pediatric skeletal pathology at Adelaide Children's Hospital.
    • Four illustrative cases demonstrate the early clinical experience with this method.

    Findings:

    • Three-dimensional (3D) reformation effectively translates 2D CT data into an easily comprehensible 3D visual representation.
    • The technique provides enhanced spatial understanding of pediatric skeletal abnormalities.
    • Early results indicate the method's utility in diagnosing and evaluating bone conditions.

    Implications:

    • 3D reformations offer significant value in the assessment of pediatric skeletal pathology.
    • This advanced visualization technique has the potential to improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning.
    • The method is expected to become increasingly important for orthopedic surgeons and radiologists specializing in pediatric care.
