Alkadhi; Zurich/CH 09:05 - 10:30 Anadolu Auditorium Learning objectives: To describe the basic principles of dual energy MDCT and Postgraduate Course 1 discuss present and future applications in abdominal imaging. To address the radiation exposure and economic issues associated with dual energy MDCT. All you need to know Abstract: The recent introduction of the dual-source computed tomography (CT) scanner has brought about new opportunities in the imaging field. The scanner PG 1.01 type is characterized by two X-ray tubes and two corresponding detectors that are From 4 to 256-slice MDCT: capabilities, post-processing mounted onto the rotating gantry with an angular offset of 90º. The two X-ray tubes and PACS issues of the scanner can be operated either at identical tube potentials that results in a P. Rogalla; Berlin/DE doubling of the temporal resolution of the scanner being beneficial for cardiac examinations, or at two different tube potentials that enable the simultaneous Learning objectives: To compare the quality of MDCT images obtained with different Lunch acquisition of CT data in the dual-energy mode. The latter approach allows for an detector configurations and the clinical capabilities of each configuration. To describe improved characterization of tissue and for the generation of virtual non-enhanced post processing methods, address PACS issues (data management, image transfer and images through the identification and subtraction of iodine from contrast-enhanced storage etc) and to introduce 3D applications. data sets. The theoretical concept of the dual energy CT technique is based on the Abstract: A major step in CT imaging was taken when the first 4-slice CT became S spectral properties of different materials, the atomic z-numbers, and the different available for clinical imaging.
