Summary Visualization of the coronary arteries by multislice spiral computer tomography is characterized by a continuous impro- vement in term of hardware and software of the scanners. With the 64 slices /rotation scanner the sensitivity is about 95% and the specificity is more than 95%. Limitations of the method remain the atrial fibrillation, sev...

To investigate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic splenectomy and portaazygous devascularization, we studied laparoscopic splenectomy and porto-azygos devascularization patients within the peri-operative period. Clinical data and curative effect are detailed alongside statistical analysis. The laparoscopic splenectomy and porto-azygos devascul...

Digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) play a vital role for verifying patient position for many radiotherapy treatments. As DRRs are generated from CT scans, image quality may be affected by the scanning mode (axial or helical). The aim of this study was to investigate the high and low contrast resolution and the spatial linearity in DRRs as a...

Background:. Cross-sectional area (CSA) for small pulmonary vessels is considered a parameter of pulmonary vessel alterations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. This study was to evaluate the correlation of CSA with airflow obstruction parameters in asthma. Furthermore, we aimed to measure the difference in vascular alteration...

Background: Intestinal obstruction is a common clinical occurrence and can be either dynamic or adynamic. The old saying “Never let the sun set or rise on an obstructed bowel” taught to minimize missing strangulation. Helical CT with its multiplanar reformatted imaging can accurately characterize the level, degree, cause and associated complication...

In this article the parameter probing error according to the national guideline VDI/VDE 2630 is determined for the circular and helical sampling of spherical objects using cone-beam computed tomography. In order to be able to evaluate exclusively the acquisition geometry, simulated data sets are used for the determination of the parameters. Due to...
