BACKGROUND. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is highly lethal, partly because of challenges in early diagnosis. However, the prognosis for earlier stages (carcinoma situ or category T1a invasive carcinoma) relatively favorable. OBJECTIVE. The purpose this study was to investigate findings an diagnosis PDAC on CT examinations performed at least 1 year before clinical stage I PDAC. METHODS. This retrospective included 103 patients with and a examination that detected PDAC, as well...
Study Design. A prospective case series. Objective. The aim of this study was to assess a new protocol for full spine X-ray using copper (Cu) filters reduce radiation exposure in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Summary Background Data. Radiation is associated an increased risk cancer development children. To the without compromising image quality existing radiographic equipment, computed radiography optimized variety heavy metal filters. Methods. 1: Whole radiographs...
We investigated dose reduction ability of an iterative reconstruction technology for low-dose computed tomography (CT) lung cancer screening. The Sinogram Affirmed Iterative Reconstruction (SAFIRE) provided in a multi slice CT system, Somatom Definition Flash (Siemens Healthcare) was used. An anthropomorphic chest phantom (N-1, Kyoto Kagaku) scanned at volume index (CTDIvol) 0.50-11.86 mGy with 120 kV. For noise (standard deviation) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) measurements, CTP486...
