Computed Tomography News & Stories

cVRT images reconstructed with reference images and UHR images, using the same preset, show the differences in the delineation of the calcified plaques, the stenosis and the small vessels in three dimensions. Note that even UHR images as thin as 0.2 mm reconstructed with sharper kernel of Bv60 can be used to create a cVRT image with optimal image quality, owing to the reduced image noise.

Coronary stenosis assessment prior to a transcatheter aortic valve replacement –revascularization?

 2023-03-10

A 62-year-old male patient with severe symptomatic low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis was scheduled for transcatheter aortic valve replacement. A coronary CT angiography was performed prior to the procedure, using an ultra-high resolution scan mode due to the patient’s high coronary calcium load.

The improved resolution offered by photon-counting technology is a game changer for neurologists at Erasmus Medical Center Rotterdam, says lead researcher Professor Aad van der Lugt.

A cVRT image reconstructed with 0.5 mm slices shows both the lung lesion and the gallstone in three dimensions.

A small pulmonary nodule in an obese patient

 2023-02-10

A 60-year-old female patient with severe obesity (300 kg body weight) was admitted to the hospital due to sepsis and acute renal failure. A lung X-ray was performed and revealed a small lesion at the level of the right pulmonary hilus with an unclear nature. A contrast enhanced CT was requested for further investigation.

Severe emphysema treated with endobronchial valves

 2023-01-13

A 53-year-old male patient, suffering from severe emphysema and hyperinflation, was treated with endobronchial valve deposition – an interventional procedure aiming to reduce the lung volume in order to improve ipsilateral diaphragmatic motion and subsequently, the patient’s respiratory condition. An UHR chest CT was indicated for post-procedural evaluation.
