Radiation Dose in Cardiac SPECT/CT: An Estimation of SSDE and Effective Dose

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Radiology, 2016
The dose levels for Computed Tomography (CT) localization and attenuation correction of Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) are limited and reported as Volume Computed Tomography Dose Index (CTDIvol) and Dose-Length Product (DLP). This work presents CT dose estimation from Cardiac SPECT/CT based on new American Association of Physicists ...

Estimation of Size-Specific Dose Estimates (SSDE) for Paediatric and Adults Patients Based on a Single Slice

Physica Medica, 2020
Volume averaged CT dose index (CTDIvol) is an important dose index utilized for CT dosimetry. Measurements of CTDIvol are performed in reference cylindrical phantoms of specified diameters. A size-specific dose estimate (SSDE) has been recommended for assessment of doses delivered to individual patients.

Patient centering effects on Size-Specific Dose Estimates (SSDE)

open access: yes, 2017
Background/Introduction: The concept of Size-Specific Dose Estimates (SSDE) for refining computed tomography (CT) dosimetry has been proposed in the Report of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) Task Group 204.[1] The present conventional metrics for...

Size-specific dose estimates (SSDEs) for computed tomography and influencing factors on it: a systematic review

Journal of Radiological Protection, 2021
Abstract The actual dose received during a computed tomography (CT) examination depends on both the patient size and the radiation output of the scanner. To represent the actual patient morphometry, a new radiation dose metric named size-specific dose estimates (SSDEs) was developed by the American Association of Physicists in ...

CTContour: An Open-Source Python Pipeline for Automatic Contouring and Calculation of Mean SSDE Along the Abdomino-Pelvic Region for CT Images; Validation on Fifteen Systems [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica Medica, 2022
Purpose Calculation of the Size Specific Dose Estimate (SSDE) requires accurate delineation of the skin boundary of patient CT slices. The AAPM recommendation for SSDE evaluation at every CT slice is too time intensive for manual contouring, prohibiting ...

Signal Detection in MIMO-OFDM Systems Based on SSDE Algorithm

Wireless Personal Communications, 2015
Device-to-device communication enables to improve the application performance of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technology. In a multi-input multi-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system, its performance is largely reflected by the signal detection algorithm used in receiver.
