摘要
目的分析影响肺部高分辨率CT(HRCT)图像质量的主要因素,探讨常规肺部容积扫描条件下获得HRCT图像质量的可行性。方法应用64层CT对Catphan500模具进行连续、重复扫描。对比内容:扫描方式(轴面扫描、螺旋扫描)、kV值(140、120kV)、层厚(1.25、5.00mm,其中5.00mm图像折分为1.25mm)、重建算法(骨+算法、肺算法)。评价内容:空间分辨率、密度分辨率、图像噪声。统计分析采用析因设计方差分析。结果扫描方式在密度分辨率(轴面扫描:11.44±0.04;螺旋扫描:12.61±0.04)、图像噪声(轴面扫描:5.89±0。05;螺旋扫描:6.92±0.05)上差异均有统计学意义(F值分别为539.61、179.02,P值均〈0.0t),轴面扫描密度分辨率高于螺旋扫描,图像噪声低于螺旋扫描;重建算法间在空间分辨率(骨+:9.90±0.09;肺:7.40±0.09)、密度分辨率(骨+:11.39±0.04;肺:12.65±0.04)、图像噪声(骨+:6.55±0.05;肺:6.28±0.05)上差异均具有统计学意义(F值分别为375.00、627.95、13.97,P值均〈0.05),骨+算法优于肺算法但噪声值略高。结论容积扫描在密度分辨率、图像噪声控制上较传统HRCT稍差,但在空间分辨率上容积扫描骨+算法重建与HRCT图像质量相当,用于显示肺内细节时容积高分辨率CT可代替常规HRCT。
Objective To characterize the influent factors on thorax image quality in high resolution CT( HRCT), and explore the feasibility of obtained HRCT images with cone-beam scan instead of fan-beam scan. Methods CatphanS00 phantom were consecutively underwent 64-MSCT scan using different scan mode and reconstruction kernel:scan mode (axial and helical scan mode) ;current (140 and 120 kV) ; slice thickness ( 1.25 mm slice scanned and 5. (30 tuna slice scanned reconstructed by 1.25 mm) ;algorithms ( lung and bone plus )o High-contrast spatial resolution and low-contrast spatial resolution from Catphan500 phantom and image noise for each CT scan were all recorded and results were analyzed by variance ANOVA analysis. Results Low-contrast spatial resolution (fan-beam scan: 11.44 ±0. 04, cone-beam scan: 12. 61 ±0. 04) and image noise ( fan-beam scan: 5.89± 0. 05, cone-beam scan: 6. 92± 0. 05 ) were significantly different between two scan modes ( F = 539. 61 , 179. 02 respectively, all P value 〈0. 01 ). Result of axial mode was better than that of helical mode. High-contrast spatial resolution (bone plus: 9.90±0. 09, lung: 7.40±0. 09) low-contrast spatial resolution (bone plus: 11.39±0.04, lung: 12. 65± 0. 04) and image noise ( bone plus : 6. 55± 0. 05 ; lung : 6. 28± 0. 05 ) were significantly differet between lung and bone plus algorithms (F = 375.00, 627.95,13.97 respectively, all P value 〈 0. 05). Bone plus reconstruction images were sharper, but had more noise than lung reconstruction images. Conclusions High-contrast spatial resolution of image using volume scan and bone plus algorithms was comparable with conventional HRCT. Volume HRCT can provide the same diagnostic value for pulmonary disease as conventional HRCT.
