2005, 14(4): 59-67.

Abstract(590)

Abstract:
The technology for x-ray computed tomography(CT) has experienced tremendous growth in recent years.Since the introduction of 4-slice helical scanners in 1998,rapid improvement has been made on CT scanners in terms of the volume coverage,spatial resolution,scan speed,and the number of slices.These advancements not only significantly impact clinical applications,but also bring huge challenges to the CT system design.Because of the complexity of the volumetric CT(VCT) system,various strategies have to be utilized in the design process.These methodologies include theoretical analysis,computer simulation for system performance prediction,bench-top experiments for analysis confirmation,automated image analysis tools for automatically evaluating image performance,and double-blind tests with human observers for parameter optimization.In this paper,we present some of the system design considerations and optimization processes for a 64-slice scanner.These design processes ensure the optimal performance of the cone beam CT scanner.Initial clinical feedback has demonstrated the effectiveness of our approach.

Abstract(609)

Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of 16-slice Spiral CT angiography(M empirical study of SCTA) and reconstruction in the diagnosis and therapy of moyamoya disease. Material and methods 15 patiants with moyamoya disease were examined both with routine CT scanning and MSCTA,all performed Volume Rending(VR)、Maximum density projection(MIP) and Multiplanar reconstruction(MPR) with ADW4.2 software. Results In all cases CTA showed the stenosis or obstruction of arteria carotis interna(ICA) or proximum of Wills circle,abnormal vessel network in brain basal part.Including stenosis of bilateral ICA(6cases),one side ICA and posterior cerebral artery(1 case),one side middle cerebral artery(8 cases).The branch vessels could been evaluated with CTA images.VR was better on showing the stenosis of the vessels and its spatial relation with surrounding bone structure,MIP and MPR was better on showing abnormal vessel network in brain basal part and branch vessels. Conclusion With different reconstruction,MSCTA can display the abnormal vessels and spatial relation very well,and provide important reference for the therapy.
