La ricostruzione iterativa è considerata un metodo molto promettente per ridurre la dose senza compromettere la qualità dell'immagine. E Siemens, ancora una volta, è diventata il punto di riferimento nell'imaging a basso dosaggio grazie a SAFIRE (Sinogram Affirmed Iterative Reconstruction), la prima ricostruzione iterativa basata sui dati grezzi.

For the first time, raw data (or sinogram data) are actually being utilized in the iterative image improvement process. With this, SAFIRE can achieve significant radiation dose reduction*. Or instead improve image quality (contrast, sharpness and noise), even surpassing the already impressive image quality realized with IRIS

 

Features & Benefits

• Up to 60% dose reduction*
• Superior image quality
• Fast and customizable workflow with >20 images per second    

 

* In clinical practice, the use of SAFIRE may reduce CT patient dose depending on the clinical task, patient size, anatomical location, and clinical practice. A consultation with a radiologist and a physicist should be made to determine the appropriate dose to obtain diagnostic image quality for the particular clinical task. The following test method was used to determine a 54 to 60% dose reduction when using the SAFIRE reconstruction software. Noise, CT numbers, homogenity, low-contast resolution and high contrast resolution were assessed in a Gammex 438 phantom. Low dose data reconstructed with SAFIRE showed the same image quality compared to full dose data based on this test. Data on file.

Caratteristiche e vantaggi

Per la prima volta, i dati grezzi (o sinogramma) vengono effettivamente utilizzati nel processo di miglioramento iterativo dell'immagine. Con ciò, SAFIRE può raggiungere una riduzione significativa della dose di radiazioni1. oppure migliorare la qualità d'immagine (contrasto, nitidezza e rumore), superando anche la già impressionante qualità delle immagini ottenuta con IRIS


Caratteristiche e benefici

  • Risuzione della dose fino al 60%1
  • Qualità delle immagini superiore
  • Workflow veloce e personalizzabile con >20 immagini al secondo
