Quantitative Computed Tomography and Computed Tomography in Children [PDF]

open access: possibleCurrent Osteoporosis Reports, 2011
Quantitative computed tomography (QCT) methodologies have been instrumental in deepening our understanding of bone acquisition and strength during childhood. Important publications in the last year have drawn attention to the functional muscle-bone unit, showing that factors such as population ancestry, bone size, and muscle composition are additional ...

Computed tomography of the kidney [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Urology, 1977
Computed tomography is an extremely accurate method of obtaining more definitive diagnostic information about a renal mass discovered on a urogram. Benign renal cysts are readily distinguished from solid renal neoplasms, and CT is often valuable in characterizing possible juxtarenal masses. The cause of a nonfunctioning kidney(s) on a urogram can often

Computed tomography--an increasing source of radiation exposure.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2007
The number of computed tomographic (CT) studies performed is increasing rapidly. Because CT scans involve much higher doses of radiation than plain films, we are seeing a marked increase in radiation exposure in the general population.

Computed tomography

2015
Over the last two decades, the exponential use of CT in the assessment of the urological patient has been fuelled by the advent of multidetector thin slice CT and supersession of intravenous urography by CT urography. The latter may be considered as a one-stop imaging investigation for haematuria, with increased detection of urinary tract cancers and ...

X-ray computed tomography

Machine Learning for Tomographic Imaging, 2019
Computed tomography (CT) is a non-destructive X-ray imaging method, which allows to visualize three-dimensional X-ray absorption properties of an object.

Computed Tomography

European Neurology, 1989
Lacunes consist of small vascular lesions with a volume of between 2 and about 30 mm. These lacunar infarctions are determined by an ischemia caused by obstructive diseases of small terminal vessels in the deep areas of the brain. While magnetic resonance currently appears to be a more sensitive diagnostic tool than computed tomography (CT) as far as ...

Computed Tomography in Meningitis

Neuroradiology, 1978
Computed tomography in 34 cases of meningitis has revealed a spectrum of findings. In acute cases these include enlargement of the subarachnoid spaces, generalized contrast enhancement of the meninges and ependyma, sterile and pyogenic subdural collections, cortical infarction, and cerebral necrosis.

Computed Tomography Exophthalmometry

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2010
Exophthalmometry is an important clinical tool used in evaluating many orbital diseases. The authors evaluated whether or not exophthalmometry readings obtained from computed tomography (CT) correlate with traditional Hertel measurements.
