背景情况:
- 急性尾炎的诊断严重依赖于CT扫描.
- 在CT中减少辐射剂量对于患者的安全至关重要.
- 超低剂量CT (ULDCT) 可降低剂量,但可能会损害图像质量.
研究的目的:
- 评估ULDCT对急性尾炎的诊断性能和图像质量.
- 评估基于图像的深度学习解密算法 (IDLDA) 对ULDCT的影响.
- 为了比较标准ULDCT和denoisedULDCT (D-ULDCT) 之间的诊断准确度和图像质量.
主要方法:
- 对180名疑似尾炎患者的回顾性分析.
- 从标准的2mSvCT扫描中模拟ULDCT,剂量减少至少50%.
- 应用一个IDLDA来创建D-ULDCT图像.
- 六位放射科医生对ULDCT和D-ULDCT进行了独立审查,经验水平各不相同.
- 使用ROC分析和统计测试对图像质量和诊断性能进行定量和定性评估.
主要成果:
- 尾炎诊断的ROC曲线下的面积 (AUC) 在ULDCT的0.90-0.97和D-ULDCT的0.94-0.97之间.
- D-ULDCT显著提高了经验较少的放射科医生 (住院医生) 的诊断性能.
- D-ULDCT显示出优越的主观图像噪声和对所有阅读器的诊断可接受性.

Computed Tomography

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...

German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen (1845–1923) was experimenting with electrical current when he discovered that a mysterious and invisible "ray" would pass through his flesh but leave an outline of his bones on a screen coated with a metal compound. In 1895, Röntgen made the first durable record of the internal parts of a living human: an "X-ray" image (as it came to be called) of his wife’s hand. Scientists worldwide quickly began their own experiments with...
