Résumé

Objective:To carry out preliminarily study on the combination of high iodine flow rate (IDR) and high noise index (NI) in reducing radiation dose of CT angiography (CTA) for head and neck.Methods:A total of 120patients with lesions on head and neck who underwent head and neck CTA in the hospital were divided into high IDR combined with high NI group (high IDR+NI group, 50 cases) , middle IDR combined with middle NI group (middle IDR+NI group, 40 cases) and low IDR combined with low NI group (low IDR+NI group, 30 cases) according to the random number table method.The scanned images were reconstructed by the iterative reorganization algorithm (ASiR) 2.0.The CT values of head and neck, signal to noise ratio (SNR) , contrast noise ratio (CNR) of all images in three groups were analyzed objectively and scored subjectively.And the CT dose index (CTDI) , dose length product (DLP) , effective radiation dose (ED) of the iodine intake and radiation dose were recorded.Results:The differences of CT value of ascending aorta, upper common carotid artery or lower internal carotid artery among the three groups were no significant, respectively.The SNR and CNR in high IDR+NI group were significantly higher than those in middle IDR+NI group and low IDR+NI group (F=47.908, F=52.525, P<0.05) , respectively.And there was no significant difference in subjective scores among the three groups.The differences of CTDI, DLP and ED in high IDR+NI group were significantly lower than those in middle IDR+NI group and low IDR+NI group (F=224.861, F=199.610, F=412.443, P<0.05) , respectively.Conclusion:The combination of high IDR and high NI for patients who undergoes head and neck CT can reduce the radiation dose when ensure the image quality, and it is worthy in clinical application.

Résumé

Objective To explore the effects on image quality and dose reduction to the lens when using bismuth shielding in head and neck MSCT.Methods The standard phantom and the cadaveric head with none,1,2 and 3 layers of bismuth shielding were scanned with protocols of brain,temporal bone and paranasal sinuses using a 16-MDCT scanner.The organ dose to the lens in each scanning was measured with thermoluminescence dosimeters(TLD).The above scanning with sinus protocol was repeated with a sponge with thickness of 5,10,15 and 20 mm placed between the shielding and phantom/head.The CT attenuation of phantom with the distance of 2,4,6 and 8 cm to shielding were measured.The image quality was subjectively evaluated by 2 physicians.Results The organ doses of the lens with protocols of brain,temporal bone and sinuses were 24.31,27.60 and 20.01 mGy,respectively.The doses were decreased significantly when using bismuth shielding.With the increase of the shield gap,the degree of dose reduction was reduced,but the increasing degree of CT attenuation significantly reduced.Using 2-layer and 3-layer bismuth shield in brain and temporal bone CT scan,the radiation doses were reduced by 47.1% and 59.1%,respectively while maintaining the diagnostic image quality.Using 1-layer shield without gap and 2-layer shield with 1.5 cm gap in sinus CT,the radiation doses were reduced by 31.5% and 34.5%,respectively.Conclusions Reasonable usage of bismuth shielding can effectively reduce the radiation dose to the lens of eye in head and neck MSCT.
