To observe the clinical effects of Depulpin in deciduous teeth. It was suggested that Depulpin was an effective and safe drug for pulp devitalizer in children.

Objective To explore the clinical value of adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction(ASIR)combined with automatic tube current modulation in low dose scan of chest CT.Methods 80 patients who underwent chest CT scan were randomly divided into four groups,with a noise index(NI)of 14,16,18,and 20,respectively.Automatic tube current modulation technique for chest CT scan was adopted for all patients.The standard dose group,with a NI of 14,was reconstructed with FBP.While the low-dose groups,with a NI of 16,18 and 20,were reconstructed with four ASIR levels(20% ASIR,40% ASIR,60% ASIR and 80% ASIR) in each group.The volume CT dose index(CTDIvol),dose length product(DLP)and effective dose(ED)were recorded of the four groups.The signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)were calculated of the different reconstruction groups. Two radiologists with more than five years of work experience blindly scored the subjective image quality.Results Effective dose of the four groups with different NI were(3.29 ± 1.21)mSv,(3.10 ± 1.07)mSv,(2.20 ± 0.82)mSv and(1.97 ± 1.21)mSv,respectively. In all the reconstruction groups,when NI was constant,the greater the ASIR,the lower the SD.When ASIR percentage was constant, the SD was increased and the SNR was reduced along with NI rising up.When the parameters were set as NI 18 and ASIR 60%,the SD would be smaller and SNR would be higher than that of a standard dose group.In aspect of the scores from subjective image quality evaluation,there was no significant difference(P> 0.05).The average ED was decreased by about 33.2% when compared to the standard dose group.Conclusion Combining automatic tube current modulation with ASIR has a certain clinical practicality.When the NI is set at 18 and ASIR is 60%,the image quality can be optimal for not only satisfying the requirements of clinical diagnosis, but also reducing radiation dose in chest CT scanning.
