Materials and Methods: SPSS 17.0 is used statistically for analyzing the patient’s scanning parameters, radiation dose of monitoring and examining the patients who are scanning of their abdomen, chest and pelvic in our affiliated hospital. Results: SPSS statistical analysis shows that the factor related to radiation dose is scanning layer;the basic characteristics such as height and heart rate don’t affect the patient’s scan dose directly. Conclusion: Increasing the delay time after injection can reduce the scan numbers and monitoring layers of the machine, thus reduce the patient’s radiation dose and tube’s exposure time.展开更多

Methods: Ninety-seven patients were confirmed oper- atively and pathologically. Enhanced CT scan was performed with intravenous injection bolus of ap- proximately 75-120 ml (1-1.5 ml/kg body weight) contrast medium at a rate of 2.5-3 ml/s. In 68 pa- tients receiving dual-phase scan, the delayed scan time of arterial and venous phases was 18-20 s and 60-70 s, respectively, and in 29 patients receiving three-phase scan, the delayed scan time of arterial, pancreatic and portal venous phases was 18 s, 40 s and 75 s, respectively, with a slice of 3-5 mm thick- ness, a pitch of 1-1.5, and a reconstruction interval of 2.5-4.8 mm. Results: Positive and negative predictive values of un- resectable tumors were 97.65% and 75.86%, respec- tively. The sensitivity and accuracy were 90.67% and 90. 72%, respectively. Positive predictive values of dual-phase and three-phase were 95.83% and 100%, respectively; negative predictive values were 75% and 77.78%, respectively. Conclusions: Spiral multi-phase CT is superior in re- vealing the involvement of peripancreatic vessels, the invasion of the neighboring organs, the size, shape and range of carcinoma, and the metastasis of liver and lymph node. The predictability of resection is obviously increased for patients with pancreatic car- cinoma.展开更多

METHODS: Multi-phase helical CT findings were reviewed double-blindly by radiologists. RESULTS: Altogether 24 lesions were found in 21 patients. In plain CT, the lesions were seen as hypodense or isodense areas. After contrast enhancement, 87.5% of the lesions showed regular or irregular hyperdense enhancement, whereas 12.5% demonstrated tumor vessels in arterial phase, which became hypodensed or isodensed nodules in portal phase or the hypodensed in delayed phase. The prevalence of density changes showed a hypo-hyper-hypo and hypo-hypo pattern. CONCLUSIONS: Multi-phase helical CT could reflect the blood supply of early hepatocelluar carcinoma, and is also convenient for the differential diagnosis of hepatic cavernous angioma, metastatic tumor, hepatic nodulous hyperplasia, and hepatic inflammatory granuloma.展开更多
