主要方法:
- 五个不同密度的人工GGN被放置在一个人形幻影中.
- 在四个辐射剂量水平进行CT扫描,使用256片CT扫描仪.
- 图像使用自适应统计代重建-V (AR50),DLIR (TrueFidelity-TF) 和DLIR与肺增强波器 (TF + Lu) 进行了重建.
- 分析了图像噪声,信号噪声比,对比度和噪声比,以及结节的清晰度 (半最大的全宽度). 还评估了主观图像质量.
主要成果:
- 与AR50相比,TF + Lu和TF算法减少了图像噪声 (P = 0.001).与AR50相比,TF + Lu和TF算法减少了图像噪声 (P = 0.001).
- 与单独的TF相比,TF + Lu显著提高了所有辐射剂量的GGN度 (P = 0.001).
- 使用TF + Lu的结节度相当于AR50,而单独使用TF的度最低.
结论:

01:10Computed 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...

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...
