Abstract
Objective:To discuss the effect of different reconstruction algorithms for the image quality of the computed tomographic angiography (CTA) with low dose on head and neck through comparing the images obtained from different reconstruction algorithms, which included filtering and reflection projection technique (FBP), adaptive statistical iterative (ASIR) model and based on iterative reconstruction (MBIR) after CTA with low dose was applied on head and neck.Methods:30 patients who were implemented the CTA on head and neck were enrolled in this study. The gem energy spectrum CT was applied to scan their head and neck, and the tube voltage was set in low dose (80 kVp), and 60-80 mL contrast agent (350 mg I/mL) was injected in elbow vein as 4mL/s. The other parameters were chosen as routine requirement. The obtained original images were reconstructed by using FBP, 60% ASIR and MBIR, and then the three kinds images were compared and scored by using relative statistical analysis.Results: For the using of different reconstruction algorithms (FBP, 60% ASIR and MBIR), the results of image noise showed MBIR<60% ASIR<FBP, and their differences were significant. The results of contrast noise ratio showed MBIR>60% ASIR>FBP, and the differences among them were significant. Finally, about the subjective score of image, the results showed MBIR>60% ASIR>FBP, and their differences also were significant.Conclusion: Under gem energy spectrum CT, the image noise of MBIR is lowest and its image quality is best, and it has diagnosis value and meaning in clinical practice.关键词
