The study of two methods for high pressure injetion in CT enhancement to display the aortic dissecting aneurysm / 介入放射学杂志

Objective To discuss the consequences of two different methods of high pressure injection in CT contrast enhancement to display the aortic dissecting aneurysm.Methods 100 patients underwent Lightspeed 16 MS CT with contrast enhancement of Stellant D high pressure injector(Medrad),injecting speed of 4.0 ml/s and 80 ml dosage of contrast medium.All patients were divided into A and B groups with 50 in each.The single high pressure injection was applied to A group without isotonic Na chloride flush.B group underwent the same high pressure injection and followed by isotonic Na chloride flush.The method of evaluation was carried out by double blind observation.Results A group revealed radiologic artifact up to 40 cases with positive rate of 80%.B group demonstrated the same kind of radiologic artifact in 26 cases with positive rate of 52%.Conclusions Using normal saline(sodium chloride solution)flush after high pressure injection of contrast medium during MSCT angiography is obviously better to demonstrate the internal structures of treatvessels.

Contrast Study of CT Image Quality in Two Different High-pressure Syringe Ways / 医疗卫生装备

Objective To discuss the consequences of CT image quality in two different contrast enhancement ways of high pressure syringe. Methods 100 cases by using high-pressure syringes of Lightspeed 16-raw spiral CT and Stellant D-type high-pressure syringe of Medrad, the dose of constrast medium was 4.0 ml/s and the total dose was 80 ml, which was divided into A and B group enhancement scanning. The canalis singularis high pressure syringe was used in 50 cases of A group that no isotonic Na chloride flush, in contrast to 50 samples of B group that were underwent the double isotonic Na chloride flush. The method of evaluation is double-blind observation. Results The number of positive is 40 samples which has radioactive constructed defect in A group. The masculine proportion is 80%. The number of the negative is 10 samples. The proportion is 20%. Correspondingly, the number of radioactive constructed defect in the B group is 24 samples(48%), and the negative number is 26 samples(52%, P
