Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility of one-stop examination with Revolution CT for axial perfusion of normal pancreas.Methods Thirteen patients who received axial perfusion scan by one-stop examination with Revolution CT were analyzed as perfusion group.Two radiologists measured pancreatic CT perfusion (CTP) parameters independently and selected optimal phase for CTA and three phases of enhanced images.The effect dose (ED) was calculated.Eighteen patients who underwent abdominal enhanced CT and CTA with spiral scan were included as control group.Patients in both groups had no pancreatic disorders.The interobserver variation of CTP parameters was estimated.Two independent radiologists separated the superior pancreaticoduodenal artery (SPDA) image into 5 points according to image quality,and the consistency was assessed.The subjective points of SPDA image quality of two groups was compared.CT value,images noise,CNR and SNR of SPDA on CTA images and those of pancreas on three phases enhanced scan images between two groups were compared.Results ICC values of all CTP parameters were higher than 0.75.The ED of perfusion protocol was (24.52±-0.01)mSv.The subjective image scores of SPDA on CTA images in both groups were both 5,the consistency was good (Kappa=0.629,0.769).The CT value,CNR,and SNR of SPDA on CTA images of CTP group were higher than those of control group (all P＜0.05).The CT value,CNR,and SNR of pancreas of CTP group were higher than those of control group in venous phase and balanced phase (all P＜0.05).Conclusion The pancreatic CT one-stop examination can be performed by Revolution CT scanner with maximum detector width with acceptable radiation dose,from which pancreatic CT perfusion data,enhanced images with high quality and better CTA images can be extracted.
