Electronic cleaning of intestinal contents tagging by diatrizoate meglumine for single-source dual-energy CT colonography with sequential acquisitions and volume scanning / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the feasibility of applying electronic cleaning to intestinal contents tagging by diatrizoate meglumine for single-source dual-energy CT colonography with sequential acquisitions and volume scanning.Methods Twenty-four volunteers had fine effect of intestinal contents tagging by diatrizoate meglumine,good colorectal distension effect,fine image quality of dual-energy fusion colorectal images,and with informed consents were enrolled in this study.The single-source dual-energy CT colonography with sequential acquisitions and volume scanning was performed with an Acquilion ONE 320 row CT scanner,tube voltage 135 kVp/80 kVp.The intestinal contents conducted the dual-energy electronic cleaned based on decomposition of intestinal contents tagging by diatrizoate meglumine,soft tissue and air.The intestinal contents in one segment of intestinal lumen being 100％ electronically cleaned served as the basic standard,the electronic cleaning effects were divided into the 5 gradesexcellent,good,moderate,fair and poor;and grade 1-3 were effective fecal electronic cleaning.Results The grade 1,2,3,4,5 of electronic cleaning effect for solid as the main intestinal contents were 22.2％,53.3％,17.8％,6.7％ and 0％ respectively;and which of electronic cleaning effect for liquid as the main intestinal contents were 47.5％,47.5％,5.0％,0％ and 0％ respectively.The together total effective electronic cleaning of intestinal contents was 97.9％ and the electronic cleaning effect was good.Conclusion Electronic cleaning could be used in the intestinal contents tagging by diatrizoate meglumine for single-source dual-energy CT colonography with sequential acquisitions and volume scanning.
