Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical application of postprocessing technique of spiral CT images in chest diseases.Methods Chest spiral CT was performed in 105 cases and 10 normal controls.The postprocessing images were done using software and compared to conventional CT, fiberoptic bronchoscopy, operation and pathological results. Results The postprocessing images had better MPR and 3D view of organs, nice contrast between of lesion and sorroundings structures.This postprocessing techniques provided more informations in observing and analysing the chest disease.Conclusion Postprocessing technique of spiral CT images is an important complimentation for 2D CT analysis, and has many advantages especially on thoracic disease diagnosis,but they should be applied in combination with two-dimensional CT to achieve accurate diagnosis.
