Objective To investigate the application of dual volume reconstruction translucent imaging in performing stent- assisted coil embolization for intracranial aneurysm embolization treatment. Methods During the period from Nov. 2011 to Sep. 2012, a total of 30 patients with intracranial aneurysm were admitted to authors’ hospital. Stent-assisted coil embolization was carried out in all patients. The number of all the stent point-marks visualized on routine 2D-DSA, on rotational angiography (3D-RA) and on dual volume reconstruction translucent images were determined, and the results were compared between each other of the three imaging methods. Results A total of 34 stents (206 stent point-marks in total) were implanted in the 30 patients. Of the 206 stent point-marks, 2D-DSA, 3D-RA and dual volume reconstruction translucent image could clearly display 146 (70.8%), 123 (59.7%) and 190 (92.2%), respectively. Statistically significant difference in the displaying rate of the stent point-marks existed between each other among the three imaging methods (P < 0.05). Conclusion Dual volume reconstruction translucent imaging can distinctly display the location of the stent marks, which is of great value in guiding the performance of intracranial stent implantation surgery.

Objective To investigate the value of advanced virtual monoenergetic technique(mono-plus) of dual-energy CT (DECT) in improving imaging quality of the lliofemoral arteries.Methods Forty consecutive patients underwent DECT scan.Mono-plus images (40 keV),optimal monoenergy images and mixed energy images were obtained by using Siemens Syngo.via VB10A workstation.CT values,signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and subjective image quality were calculated in the abdominal aorta,iliac artery,external iliac artery,femoral artery,profound femoral artery, lateral circumflex femoral artery,transversal branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery,medial circumflex femoral artery and profound branch of medial circumflex femoral artery and compared among the three groups.Results Compared with the optimal monoenergy and mixed energy groups,CT value and CNR of the 9 arteries were significantly higher in the mono-plus group (P<0.003).SNR of the transversal branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery and the profound branch of medial circumflex femoral artery showed no significant difference (P>0.05) among the threegroups,whereas SNR of the arties bigger than the 6th grade branch were significantly lower in the mono-plus group (P<0.05).The subjective image quality in the mono-plus group was significant better than the other two groups(P<0.001).Conclusion 40 keV mono-plus technique in DECT can improve the display of lliofemoral arteries especially the small and distal branches.
