Journal of Chongqing Medical University 2007;0(09):-
Objective:To investigate the clinical application of the panorama imaging of digital radiography(DR). Methods:2~3 images of spine or long bone were collected with amorphous silicon flat-panel detector DR system,thereupon the panorama images including whole spine and both sides of lower limbs were obtained by post-processing of mosaic technique. Results:The panorama images can not only show the whole spine and lower limbs on a single film, but also be used for measuring the length and the angle. Conclusion:The panorama imaging from digital radiography based on mosaic technique can meet the demand of clinical application.

Objective To compare patient radiation dose of two techniques of spine X-ray panoramic imaging under the same image quality.Methods An anthropomorphic phantom was used.The reasonable imaging parameters were found for spine panoramic radiography using Sonialvision safire17 Slot scan with HQ mode.And the panoramic films were obtained with different parameters using GE XR650 DR system.The panoramic images were scored by three experienced radiologists.The imaging parameters with the same score in groups were input into PCXMC 2.0 software to get effective dose(E) and organ dose.Results The reasonable imaging parameters of Slot scan were high quality(HQ) mode, SID 150 cm, 100 kVp, and 2 mAs;and the corresponding parameters of XR650 were SID 200 cm, 100 kVp, and 3.2 mAs.The E of the Slot scan with HQ mode, XR650 with manual mode and XR650 with AEC mode was(0.118 7±0.001 4),(0.0847±0.0008), and (0.1580±0.001 5) mSvrespectively, while the E of XR650 with manual mode was lower than the others(F =3 007.293, P <0.05).The organ dose using XR650 DR with manual mode were lower than that using Slot scan with HQ mode in all samples except breasts(P <0.05);the organ dose using XR650 DR with AEC mode were higher than that using XR650 DR with manual mode and Slot scan with HQ mode for all samples except for thyroid, oesophagus and lungs (P <0.05).Conclusions The radiation doses of both spine X-ray panoramic imaging with manual mode are low, and low dose spine X-ray panoramic imaging can be achieved if reasonable parameters are used.

Objective To compare the differences of temperature results between mercury thermometer and infrared thermometer. Methods The temperature of three parts was recorded respectively by mercury thermometer in axilla and infrared thermometer in forehead and earlobe on the same patient, totally 98 patients were recorded in ICU. Results There was statistical difference of three parts' temperature in 98 cases. It could be assumed that axilla temperature > earlobe temperature > forehead temperature;There was no statistical difference of three parts' temperature in 17 cases with temperature 38.0~38.9 ℃ by mercury thermometer, but the difference had clinical significance. It could be assumed that axilla temperature > earlobe temperature > forehead temperature; There was statistical difference of three parts' temperature in 30 cases with temperature at 37.0~37.9 ℃ by mercury thermometer. It could be assumed that axilla temperature > earlobe temperature > forehead temperature. There was no statistical difference of three parts'temperature in 51 cases with temperature at 35.0~36.9 ℃ by mercury thermometer. Conclusions Temperature of the patients with normal axilla temperature could be monitored by infrared thermometer instead of mercury thermometer,but it is not applicable to the patients with fever.

Objective To investigate the image quality difference of the virtual monochromatic spectral(VMS) images synthesized from fast kilovoltage switching and dual-source dual-energy CT for a given radiation dose. Methods A plurality of disposable syringes containing 15 mg/ml iodine contrast agent and saline were placed on the surface of the male anthropomorphic phantom consisting ofhead neck and torso, GE HD750 gemstone spectral imaging and Siemens Somatom Definition Flash dual energy CT protocols were performed on the phantom for a same dose(volume CT dose index 6.52 mGy), and VMS images (40, 60, 70, 80, 100, 120, 140 keV) were reconstructed and obtained(VMSkV switching and VMSdual-source image), respectively. The objective image noise, iodine signal noise ratio(SNR), iodine contrast noise ratio (CNR) and CT values were measured. The results were analyzed using the paired t test and ANOVA. Results All VMS iodine CT values were gradually decreased with the increasing of keV , and iodine CT values on VMSdual-source images were greater than on VMSkV switching images(P<0.05), VMSkV switching iodine CT values in descending order from the head , chest, abdomen at less than 100 keV,while most VMSdual-source iodine CT values were highest on chest(P<0.05). VMSdual-source and VMSkV switching image noise were highest at 40 keV and successively raised from the head, chest , abdomen. VMSkV switching image noise gradually decreased with the increase of keV in the range of 40 to 70 keV , gradually increased up to the trough after 70 keV from 80 keV gradually decreased, while VMSdual-source image noise was lowest at 70 keV or 80 keV , and then with the keV increased gradually increased. Image noise on VMSkV switching images in the range of 40 to 100 keV were higher than that on VMSdual-source images and lower in the range of 100 to 140 keV at most part(P<0.05). VMSdual-source and VMSkV switching iodine SNR were highest at 40 keV or 60 keV,SNR on VMSdual-source images are greater than on VMSkV switching images except 40 keV images on head and abdomen(P<0.05) . VMSdual-source and VMSkV switching iodine CNR were highest at 60 keV,CNR on VMSdual-source images are greater than on VMSkV switching images except 40 keV images on head 100 keV and 120 keV on abdomen(P<0.05).SNR and CNR decreased from the head, chest, abdomen (P<0.05). Conclusion VMS images synthesized from fast kilovoltage switching and dual-source dual-energy CT have different image quality performance at most keV and body parts, but VMS imaging at approximately 70 keV yielded lower image noise, and at approximately 60 keV yielded highest SNR and CNR.
