structure of,human body without operation,But its superimposed,And we couldnt view soft tissue,My name is Godfrey Hounsfield,I work for the Central Research,Labs.of EMI,Ltd in England,I developed the the first clinically,useful CT scanner in 1971,History of Computed Tomography,Early 1970s,1963-Alan Cormack developed a mathematical method of reconstructing images from x-ray projections,For the first time we could view:,CT Broke the Barrier,-Tomographic or“,Slice,”anatomy-Density difference,But its time consuming,And resolution needs to be improved,Concept of X-ray Attenuation,An X-ray beam passing through,the body is attenuated(loses its,energy)by:,Absorption,Scattering,Incident X-ray,Transmitted ray,SCATTERED X-RAYS,BODY,TISSUE,Absorption by the tissue is proportional to the density,Less,dense,tissue,More,dense,tissue,MORE ATTENUATION,LESS ATTENUATION,How does CT Work?,Recon.&postpro.,Data acquisition,X-ray generation,X-ray goes through,collimator therefore,penetrate only an axial,layer of the object,called,slice,How does CT Work?,Patient is placed in the center of the measurement field,X-ray is passed through the patients slice from many direction along a 360 path,The transmitted beams are captured by the detectors which digitizes these signals,These digitized signals called raw data are sent to a computer which create the CT image,How does CT Work?,The object slice is divided into small volume elements called voxels.,Each voxel is assigned a value which is dependent on the average amount of attenuation,How is CT Image generated?,The attenuation values are transferred to the computer where they are coded&used to create a slice image,How is CT Image generated?,CT Generations&Design,“Generation”,is used to label CT tube-detector designs,3rd Generation Design,Rotating tube&detector,4th Generation Design,Fixed ring detector,Slip-ring Technology,Power is transmitted through parallel sets of conductive rings,instead of electrical cables,Continuous

Protocols,Clinical Applications,What is Spiral Scan?-just,4“C”,C,ontinuously rotating tube/detector system,C,ontinuously generating X-ray,C,ontinuously table feed,C,ontinuously data acquisition,Reconstruction of arbitrary,slices(either contiguous or,overlapping)within the,scanned volume,Distance between the,slices is called Increment,A,B,Volume Data,Continuous data acquisition,Increment,Slice Thickness,Increment=Slice Thickness,No Overlap,No Gaps,Contiguous Image Reconstruction,Increment,Overlap,Slice,Thickness,Overlapping Image Reconstruction,Increment Slice Thickness,Gaps between slices,Images are further apart,Less images created,Image Reconstruction with Gaps,Increment,Slice Thickness,Standard CT/Slice Imaging,Deep Inspiration,Shallow Inspiration,Misregistration due to different,respiratory levels between slices,Partial Volume Effect,Unable to resconstruct images at,arbitrary position,Slice imaging is slow,Scan the whole region of,interest in one breath hold,Reconstruction of overlapping,images without additional dose,Retrospective reconstruction,of slices in arbitrary position,within the scanned volume,No gaps since radiation always,transmits the whole volume,Spiral CT/Volume Imaging,Computed Tomography,CT Basics,Principle of Spiral CT,Scan Parameter&Image Quality,Optimizing Injection Protocols,Clinical

due to table motion during spiral scanning,we use a special reconstruction process called,INTERPOLATION,Interpolation,Converts volume data into slice images,Interpolation Algorithm,Wide Algorithm,Slim Algorithm,2 x 360,=720,raw data,2(180+52),=464,raw data,Wide algorithm produces a broader image thickness,Wide algorithm uses more raw data=less image noise,PITCH 2,PITCH 1,Pitch 2 scanning produces a broader image thickness,Pitch 2 scanning does not increase image noise,30%increase in,image thickness,with Pitch 2,Slice Sensitivity Profile(SSP),SSP describes the,effective slice thickness,of an image and to what extent anatomy within that slice contribute to the signal,SSP,RESOLUTION,All points within the slice contribute equally,&,points outside of the slice do not contribute to the image at all.,Image signal,Ideal SSP,Z-axis(mm),Collimation=width of x-ray beam=slice profile,Slice Profile(SP),Effective slice thickness of an image,Slice ProfileResolution,Factors influencing Slice
