Ultra low radiation dose X-ray CT scannerA line scan cone beam CT imaging system irradiates an object with an x-ray cone beam for multiple views. A projection data set of the object is acquired at each view. Between views, the cone beam and detector array are translated along parallel ...
A line scan cone beam CT imaging system irradiates an object with an x-ray cone beam for multiple views. A projection data set of the object is acquired at each view. Between views, the cone beam and detector array are translated along parallel lines in opposite directions. An image is ...
This is an ultra-low dose radiation CT scan of a fracture of the tibial plateau (left) compared to a conventional dose CT scan. Credit: NYU Langone MedicalCenter Computed Tomography (CT) scans are one of the most frequently-used imaging tools in medicine. In fact, more than 72 million sc...
the use of low-dose EOS is being used more frequently in pediatric orthopedics," Dr. Dodwell said. "The goal of our study was to determine the accuracy and reliability of EOS compared with CT scanogram for measurement of leg length and the direct ...

Low-dose CT scan in stone detection for stone treatment follow-up: is there a relation between stone composition and radiation delivery? Study on a porcine-kidney modelBACKGROUND: Non-contrast CT scan (NCCT) is becoming the standard ... M Talso,E Emiliani,S Froio,... - Minerva urologica...
The aim of our study was to assess the image quality, radiation dose, and clinical applicability of low-dose, volumetric helical CT in the evaluation of bronchiectasis. Volumetric helical CT scans (120 kVp, 3-mm collimation, pitch of 2, and reconstruction interval of 2 mm) were obtained thro...
standard dose group were not statistically significant.As to the image quality,although the low-dose scan had increased the noise,all images could meet the diagnostic requirements.Conclusion:Low-dose spiral CT scans can normally diagnose urinary...
LDCT (low-dose computed tomography) works much like an x-ray exam to produce pictures of your chest and lungs. This high-quality lung screening detects lung abnormalities but with 90 percent less ionizing radiation than a conventional CT scan. If you have a high risk of lung cancer but no...
X-rays have high energy and strong ionization effects, which can induce various biological effects in the human body and account for the majority of the PET/CT radiation dose. Reduction of the CT radiation dose can be achieved by reducing the tube current and tube voltage, increasing the ...
