Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography

351
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...

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...

Super-resolution Fluorescence Microscopy

14.5K
Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy (SRFM) provides a better resolution than conventional fluorescence microscopy by reducing the point spread function (PSF). PSF is the light intensity distribution from a point that causes it to appear blurred. Due to PSF, each fluorescing point appears bigger than its actual size, and it is the PSF interference of nearby fluorophores that causes the blurred image. Various approaches to achieving higher resolution through SRFM have recently been...

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.

DefinitionRenal angiography, also known as renal arteriography, is an imaging technique used to obtain a comprehensive view of blood flow and the vascular structure of blood vessels in the kidneys and surrounding areas.PurposeRenal angiography detects blood vessel abnormalities in the kidneys, such as aneurysms, stenosis, thrombosis, vascular tumors, and renal artery stenosis. It evaluates kidney function and guides interventional treatments like angioplasty or stent placement.Pre-Procedure...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Imaging
  • Medical Physics
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

Background:

  • Super-resolution deep-learning reconstruction (SR-DLR) is a novel technique for enhancing image resolution.
  • Its impact on dynamic myocardial computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging, a critical tool for assessing coronary artery disease, remains unevaluated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effect of SR-DLR on image quality and perfusion parameters in dynamic myocardial CTP.
  • To compare SR-DLR with traditional hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR) in myocardial CTP analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 35 patients undergoing dynamic myocardial CTP.
  • Reconstruction of CTP datasets using both HIR and SR-DLR.
  • Qualitative and quantitative assessment of image quality (noise, SNR, CNR, ERS) and perfusion parameters (CT-MBF, rCV).

Main Results:

  • SR-DLR demonstrated significantly improved qualitative scores for contrast and sharpness.
  • Quantitative analysis revealed lower noise, and higher SNR, CNR, and ERS with SR-DLR compared to HIR.
  • Mean global CT-MBF was comparable between methods, with SR-DLR confirming equivalence and significantly reducing intra-patient variability (rCV).

Conclusions:

  • SR-DLR significantly enhances image quality in dynamic myocardial CTP.
  • The technique maintains the accuracy of mean global CT-MBF measurements.
  • SR-DLR reduces intra-patient variability, offering potential benefits for clinical CTP assessment.
