ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the feasibility of low-dose CT perfusion imaging(CTPI)examination combined with iterative model reconstruction (IMR) in the brain.Methods 80 patients with clinical suspicion of acute cerebral infarction underwent the cerebral CTPI were enrolled in this study.30 normal hemispheres on group A [35 cases,80 kV,150 mAs, filtered back projection(FBP)] and group B(45 cases,80 kV,30 mAs, IMR) were selected to evaluate respectively.The pictures' subjective scores, effective radiation dose (ED),CT value,SD,signal to noise ratio(SNR), contrast to noise ratio(CNR) and the perfusion parameters of the grey matter (GM) and white matter(WM) in each hemisphere of the middle cerebral artery(MCA) territory were respectively compared at ASPECTS level 2 for the two groups.Results The ED were 2.52,0.50 mSv for group A,B.There were no statistical significances in the perfusion parameters,CT value, SD, CNR of the ROIs of the GM and WM,the SNR of the ROIs of the GM and the pictures' subjective scores between group A, B (P>0.05).There was statistical significance in the SNR of the ROIs of the WM between group A,B (P<0.05).Conclusion IMR combined with 30 mAs of the CTPI can reduce the radiation dose apparently while maintain the stability of the image quality and perfusion parameters.
