Influence of Pitch on Surface Dose Distribution and Image Noise of Computed Tomography Scans

open access: yesSensors, 2023
This study evaluated the effect of pitch on 256-slice helical computed tomography (CT) scans. Cylindrical water phantoms (CWP) were measured using axial and helical scans with various pitch values. The surface dose distributions of CWP were measured, and

A Gaussian Mixture MRF for Model-Based Iterative Reconstruction with Applications to Low-Dose X-ray CT

open access: yes, 2016
Markov random fields (MRFs) have been widely used as prior models in various inverse problems such as tomographic reconstruction. While MRFs provide a simple and often effective way to model the spatial dependencies in images, they suffer from the fact ...

Helical Multidetector Row Quantitative Computed Tomography (QCT) Precision

open access: yesAcademic Radiology, 2009
The impact of varying image acquisition parameters on the precision of measurements using quantitative computed tomography is currently based on studies performed before the advent of helical image acquisition and multidetector-row scanners. The aim of this study was to evaluate helical multidetector-row quantitative computed tomography to determine ...

Pneumatization of the sphenoid sinus, dorsum sellae and posterior clinoid processes in computed tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: Assessment of sphenoid sinus (SS), posterior clinoid process (PCP), and dorsum sellae (DS) pneumatisation is significant when planning surgical approaches both to intra- and extrasellar pathologies. The authors analysed pneumatisation of the SS,
