Even so, CT brain perfusion studies are perhaps underutilized, particularly in the evaluation of acute stroke.We explain the common indications for this examination. We illustrate, in a stepwise fashion, from IV catheter selection to final image interpretation, the necessary steps for the performance...
Robust technique and accurate data analysis are required for reliable computed tomography perfusion (CTp) imaging. Multislice CT is required for high temporal resolution scanning; 16-slice (or 64-slice) scanners are preferred for adequate volume coverage. After tumour localization, the volume of CTp...
Perfusions Blood vessels and blockages Surgical planning, treatment, and reconstruction As the technology advances, and sensors and computers alike become more sophisticated, CT scans will be used for many more purposes in the future. Florida Medical Clinic Orlando Health uses 2 state of the art,...

Dual-energy multidetector CT: how does it work, what can it tell us, and when can we use it in abdominopelvic imaging? Coursey CA,Nelson RC,Boll DT,et al.Dual-energy multide- tector CT: how does it work,what can it tell us,and when can we use it in abdominopelvic imaging[J]...
On the basis of the regression analysis, CT perfusion values in the short bolus series were overestimated by 1% and those in the long bolus series were underestimated by 8%. CONCLUSION: Duration of contrast material bolus injection does not influence CT perfusion values substantially. The longer,...

Since the robotic setting is somewhat different from a traditional operating room setting, many current image guidance modalities have to be specifically adapted. However, since most robotic platforms harbor a plural of highly maneuverable instruments, this does open up many new advantages that could ...
Perfusion CT, or dynamic contrast-enhanced CT (DCE-CT), imaging employs standard low molecular weight iodinated contrast agents. When administered as an intravenous bolus, tissue concentration is dependent on vascular flow and interstitial accumulation, resulting in differential attenuation on CT imaging,...
How Does Poverty Affect Language and Cognitive Development? Numerous environmental factors have the potential to affect language outcome—instability of social and parental support structure, parenting style, maternal speech, nutrition, toxin exposure, exposure to violence, and other prenatal and post- ...
