Abstract:
PurposeTo evaluate the feasibility and clinical values of CT scan with iterative reconstruction and low radiating dose in craniocerebral trauma.Material and Methods 120 patients suffered from craniocerebral trauma were randomly assigned. All the subjects underwent CT scan using route dose of filtered back projection (FBP) and low dose of iDose (? dose and ? dose), respectively. The quartering were used to subjectively evaluate noise of imaging, skull base artifact, contrast of gyrus-white matter and lesion display in each group. Imaging noise, signal and noise rate (SNR), contrast and noise rate (CNR) of gyrus-white matter and dose length product (DLP) were compared.Results The image quality of both? iDose and ? iDose groups were lower than that of FBP group, but still met the requirement of diagnosis. The image noise of both? iDose and ? iDose groups were higher than that of FBP group (P<0.05). The SNR and CNR of both? iDose and ? iDose groups were lower than those of FBP group (P<0.05). The DLP of both? iDose and ? iDose groups were lower than that of FBP group. There was statistical difference between iDose groups and FBP group (F=2751.46,P<0.05).Conclusion Application of iDose could effectively decrease radiation dose in craniocerebral trauma. Although iDose technique has higher noise level and lower SNR and CNR, the imaging qualities and capability of displaying abnormity meet diagnosis requirement. So that iDose has clinical significance.
