PurposeTo provide mean glandular dose (MGD) estimates via Monte Carlo (MC) simulations as a function of the breast models and scan parameters in mammography, digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and dedicated breast CT (BCT).MethodsThe MC code was based on GEANT4 toolkit. The simulated compressed breast was either a cylinder with a semi-circular section or ad hoc shaped for oblique view (MLO). In DBT we studied the influence of breast models and exam parameters on the T-factors (i.e. the conversion factor for the calculation of the MGD in DBT from that for a 0-degree projection), and in BCT we investigated the influence on the MGD estimates of the ion chamber volume used for the air kerma measurements.ResultsIn mammography, a model representative of a breast undergoing an MLO view exam did not produce substantial differences (0.4%) in MGD estimates, when compared to a conventional cranio-caudal (CC) view breast model. The beam half value layer did not present a significant influence on T-factors in DBT (<0.8%), while the skin model presented significant influence on MGD estimates (up to 3.3% at 30 degrees scan angle), increasing for larger scan angles. We derived a correction factor for taking into account the different ion chamber volume used in MGD estimates in BCT.ConclusionsA series of MC code modules for MGD estimates in 2D and 3D breast imaging have been developed in order to take into account the most recent advances in breast models. 相似文献

PurposeTo compare, via Monte Carlo simulations, homogeneous and non-homogenous breast models adopted for mean glandular dose (MGD) estimates in mammography vs. patient specific digital breast phantoms.MethodsWe developed a GEANT4 Monte Carlo code simulating four homogenous cylindrical breast models featured as follows: (1) semi-cylindrical section enveloped in a 5-mm adipose layer; (2) semi-elliptical section with a 4-mm thick skin; (3) semi-cylindrical section with a 1.45-mm skin layer; (4) semi-cylindrical section in a 1.45-mm skin layer and 2-mm subcutaneous adipose layer. Twenty patient specific digital breast phantoms produced from a dedicated CT scanner were assumed as reference in the comparison. We simulated two spectra produced from two anode/filter combinations. An additional digital breast phantom was produced via BreastSimulator software.ResultsWith reference to the results for patient-specific breast phantoms and for W/Al spectra, models #1 and #3 showed higher MGD values by about 1% (ranges [–33%; +28%] and [−31%; +30%], respectively), while for model #4 it was 2% lower (range [−34%; +26%]) and for model #2 –11% (range [−39%; +14%]), on average. On the other hand, for W/Rh spectra, models #1 and #4 showed lower MGD values by 2% and 1%, while for model #2 and #3 it was 14% and 8% lower, respectively (ranges [−43%; +13%] and [−41%; +21%]). The simulation with the digital breast phantom produced with BreastSimulator showed a MGD overestimation of +33%.ConclusionsThe homogeneous breast models led to maximum MGD underestimation and overestimation of 43% and 28%, respectively, when compared to patient specific breast phantoms derived from clinical CT scans. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to research and evaluate the performance of three different digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) systems in the clinical environment (Siemens Mammomat Inspiration, Hologic Selenia Dimensions, and Fujifilm Amulet Innovality). The characterization included the study of the detector, the automatic exposure control, and the resolution of DBT projections and reconstructed planes.The modulation transfer function (MTF) of the DBT projections was measured with a 1 mm thick steel edge, showing a strong anisotropy (30–40% lower MTF0.5 frequencies in the tube travel direction). The in-plane MTF0.5, measured with a 25 μm tungsten wire, ranges from 1.3 to 1.8 lp/mm in the tube-travel direction and between 2.4 and 3.7 lp/mm in the chest wall–nipple. In the latter direction, the MTF peak shift is more emphasized for large angular range systems (2.0 versus 1.0 lp/mm). In-depth resolution of the planes, via the full width at half maximum (FWHM) from the point spread function of a 25 μm tungsten wire, is not only influenced by angular range and yields 1.3–4.6 mm among systems. The artifact spread function from 1 mm diameter tungsten beads depends mainly on angular range, yielding two tendencies whether large (FWHM is 4.5 mm) or small (FWHM is 10 mm) angular range is used. DBT delivers per scan a mean glandular dose between 1.4 and 2.7 mGy for a 45 mm thick polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) block.In conclusion, we have identified and analysed specific metrics that can be used for quality assurance of DBT systems. 相似文献

A comparison, in terms of the optimal energy that maximizes the image quality between digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and digital mammography (DM) was performed in a MAMMOMAT Inspiration system (Siemens) based on amorphous selenium flat panel detector. In this paper we measured the image quality by the signal difference-to-noise ratio (SDNR), and the patient risk by the mean glandular dose (MGD). Using these quantities we compared the optimal voltage that maximizes the image quality both in breast tomosynthesis and standard mammography acquisition mode. The comparison for the two acquisition modes was performed for a W/Rh anode filter combinations by using a 4.5 cm tissue equivalent mammography phantom. Moreover, in order to check if the used equipment was quantum noise limited, the relation of the relative noise with respect to the detector dose was evaluated. Results showed that in the tomosynthesis acquisition mode the optimal voltage is 28 kV, whereas in standard mammography the optimal voltage is 30 kV. The automatic exposure control (AEC) of the system selects 28 kV as optimal voltage both for DBT and DM. Monte Carlo simulations showed a qualitative agreement with the AEC selection system, since an optimal monochromatic energy of 20 keV was found both for DBT and DM. Moreover, the check about the noise showed that the system is not completely quantum noise limited, and this issue could explain the experimental slight difference in terms of optimal voltage between DBT and DM. According to these results, the use of higher voltage settings is not justified for the improvement of the image quality during a DBT examination. 相似文献

Effective dose (E) has been developed by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) as a dose quantity with a link to risks of health detriment, mainly cancer. It is based on reference phantoms representing average individuals, but this is often forgotten in its application to medical exposures, for which its use sometimes goes beyond the intended purpose. There has been much debate about issues involved in the use of E in medicine and ICRP is preparing a publication with more information on this application. This article aims to describe the development of E and explain how it should be used in medicine. It discusses some of the issues that arise when E is applied to medical exposures and provides information on how its use might evolve in the future. The article concludes with responses to some frequently asked questions about uses of E that are in line with the forthcoming ICRP publication. The main use of E in medicine is in meaningful comparison of doses from different types of procedure not possible with measurable dose quantities. However, it can be used, with appropriate care, as a measure of possible cancer risks. When considering E to individual patients, it is important to note that the dose received will differ from that assessed for reference phantoms, and the risk per Sv is likely to be greater on average in children and less in older adults. Newer techniques allow the calculation of patient-specific E which should be distinguished from the reference quantity. 相似文献

PurposeThis work presents a method for estimating CT dosimetric indices with a prototype designed for suspending the phantom/ion chamber system fixed at the CT isocenter. The purpose of this study was to validate the proposed methodology, which can be used to provide a direct assessment of dosimetric indices in helical scans.MethodsThe method is based on a reference setup in which the measuring system for CT dosimetry is in a stationary configuration, i.e. not bound to the CT table, and on a mathematical formalism developed for the proposed reference system. The reliability of the method was demonstrated through a set of experimental measurements. Firstly, dosimetric indices were measured with the new method and compared with the indices obtained with the procedure currently used for CT dosimetry (measuring system bound to the CT table). Secondly, dosimetric indices measured with the new method were compared with those displayed on the CT console.ResultsThere is good agreement between the dosimetric indices obtained with the standard setup and those obtained with the suspended phantom setup, within the expected range of errors. The difference between dosimetric indices estimated with the proposed method and those displayed on the CT console is below 2%.ConclusionsThe method enables CT dosimetry to be performed with the dose detector in a stationary longitudinal position thanks to the newly introduced suspended phantom setup. Using this approach, CT dose can be assessed for high pitch helical scans, acquisitions without complete tube rotation and for cases where dynamic collimation is used. 相似文献

PurposeOptimization of CT scan practices can help achieve and maintain optimal radiation protection. The aim was to assess centering, scan length, and positioning of patients undergoing chest CT for suspected or known COVID-19 pneumonia and to investigate their effect on associated radiation doses.MethodsWith respective approvals from institutional review boards, we compiled CT imaging and radiation dose data from four hospitals belonging to four countries (Brazil, Iran, Italy, and USA) on 400 adult patients who underwent chest CT for suspected or known COVID-19 pneumonia between April 2020 and August 2020. We recorded patient demographics and volume CT dose index (CTDIvol) and dose length product (DLP). From thin-section CT images of each patient, we estimated the scan length and recorded the first and last vertebral bodies at the scan start and end locations. Patient mis-centering and arm position were recorded. Data were analyzed with analysis of variance (ANOVA).ResultsThe extent and frequency of patient mis-centering did not differ across the four CT facilities (>0.09). The frequency of patients scanned with arms by their side (11–40% relative to those with arms up) had greater mis-centering and higher CTDIvol and DLP at 2/4 facilities (p = 0.027–0.05). Despite lack of variations in effective diameters (p = 0.14), there were significantly variations in scan lengths, CTDIvol and DLP across the four facilities (p < 0.001).ConclusionsMis-centering, over-scanning, and arms by the side are frequent issues with use of chest CT in COVID-19 pneumonia and are associated with higher radiation doses. 相似文献

PurposeTo develop and implement an automated Monte Carlo (MC) system for patient specific VMAT quality control in a patient geometry that generates treatment planning system (TPS) compliant DICOM objects and includes a module for 3D analysis of dose deviations. Also, the aims were to recommend diagnose specific tolerance criteria and an evaluation procedure.MethodsThe EGSnrc code package formed the basis for development of the MC system. The workflow consists of a number of modules connected to a TPS by means of manual DICOM exports and imports which were executed sequentially without user interaction. DVH comparison was performed in the TPS. In addition, MC- and TPS dose distributions were analysed by applying the normalized dose difference (NDD) formalism. NDD failure maps and a pass rate for a certain threshold were obtained. 170 clinical plans (prostate, thorax, head-and-neck and gynecological) were selected for analysis.ResultsAgreement within 1.5% was found between clinical- and MC data for the mean dose to the target volumes and within 3% for parameters more sensitive to the shape of the DVH e.g. D98% PTV. Regarding the NDD analysis, tolerance criteria 2%/3 mm were established for prostate plans and 3%/3 mm for the rest of the cases.ConclusionsAn automated MC system was developed and implemented. Evaluation procedure is recommended with NDD-analysis as a first step. For pass rate < 95%, the evaluation continues with comparison of DVH parameters. For deviations larger than 2%, a visual inspection of the clinical- and MC dose distributions is performed. 相似文献

The aims of the present work were to quantify radiation doses arises from patients' exposure in mammographic X-ray imaging procedures and to estimate the radiation induced cancer risk. Sixty patients were evaluated using a calibrated digital mammography unit at King Khaled Hospital and Prince Sultan Center, Alkharj, Saudi Arabia. The average patient age (years) was 44.4 ± 10 (26–69). The average and range of exposure parameters were 29.1 ± 1.9 (24.0–33.0) and 78.4 ± 17.5 (28.0–173.0) for X-ray tube potential (kVp) and current multiplied by the exposure time (s) (mAs), respectively. The MGD (mGy) per single projection for craniocaudal (CC), Medio lateral oblique (MLO) and lateromedial (LM) was 1.02 ± 0.2 (0.4–1.8), 1.1 ± 0.3 (0.5–1.8), 1.1 ± 0.3 (0.5–1.9) per procedure, in that order. The average cancer risk per projection is 177 per million procedures. The cancer risk is significant during multiple image acquisition. The study revealed that 80% of the procedures with normal findings. However, precise justification is required especially for young patients. 相似文献

PurposeTo estimate the number of patients in OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries who receive a cumulative effective dose (CED) ≥ 100 mSv from recurrent computed tomography (CT) exams.MethodsTaking into account recently published data on the number of CTs per patient and the fraction of patients with CED ≥ 100 mSv as well as country-specific data for the number of CT exams/1,000 population from OECD publication, this paper makes estimations for 35 OECD countries.ResultsThe estimated total number of patients with CED ≥ 100 mSv for all 35 OECD countries combined in a 5-year period is around 2.5 million (2,493,685) in a population of 1.2 billion (1,176,641,900), i.e., 0.21% of the population. Expressed per 1,000 population, the range is from 0.51 for Finland to 2.94 for the US, a nearly six-fold difference. Countries with more than 2 patients with CED ≥ 100 mSv in a 5-yr period per 1,000 population are: Belgium, France, Iceland, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, Portugal, Turkey, and US.ConclusionsThe first estimates of the number of patients likely receiving CED ≥ 100 mSv through recurrent CT exams in 35 OECD countries indicate that 2.5 million patients reach this level in a 5-year period. There is an urgent need for various stakeholders including medical physicists, referring physicians, health policy makers, manufacturers of CT equipment and epidemiologists to attend to the issue in the interest of patient radiation safety. 相似文献

Rationale and objectivesDedicated breast CT and PET/CT scanners provide detailed 3D anatomical and functional imaging data sets and are currently being investigated for applications in breast cancer management such as diagnosis, monitoring response to therapy and radiation therapy planning. Our objective was to evaluate the performance of the diffeomorphic demons (DD) non-rigid image registration method to spatially align 3D serial (pre- and post-contrast) dedicated breast computed tomography (CT), and longitudinally-acquired dedicated 3D breast CT and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT images.MethodsThe algorithmic parameters of the DD method were optimized for the alignment of dedicated breast CT images using training data and fixed. The performance of the method for image alignment was quantitatively evaluated using three separate data sets; (1) serial breast CT pre- and post-contrast images of 20 women, (2) breast CT images of 20 women acquired before and after repositioning the subject on the scanner, and (3) dedicated breast PET/CT images of 7 women undergoing neo-adjuvant chemotherapy acquired pre-treatment and after 1 cycle of therapy.ResultsThe DD registration method outperformed no registration (p < 0.001) and conventional affine registration (p ≤ 0.002) for serial and longitudinal breast CT and PET/CT image alignment. In spite of the large size of the imaging data, the computational cost of the DD method was found to be reasonable (3–5 min).ConclusionsCo-registration of dedicated breast CT and PET/CT images can be performed rapidly and reliably using the DD method. This is the first study evaluating the DD registration method for the alignment of dedicated breast CT and PET/CT images. 相似文献

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to develop and validate a Monte Carlo (MC) simulation tool for patient dose assessment for a 320 detector-row CT scanner, based on the recommendations of International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). Additionally, the simulation was applied on four clinical acquisition protocols, with and without automatic tube current modulation (TCM).MethodsThe MC simulation was based on EGS4 code and was developed specifically for a 320 detector-row cone-beam CT scanner. The ICRP adult reference phantoms were used as patient models. Dose measurements were performed free-in-air and also in four CTDI phantoms: 150 mm and 350 mm long CT head and CT body phantoms. The MC program was validated by comparing simulations results with these actual measurements acquired under the same conditions. The measurements agreed with the simulations across all conditions within 5%. Patient dose assessment was performed for four clinical axial acquisitions using the ICRP adult reference phantoms, one of them using TCM.ResultsThe results were nearly always lower than those obtained from other dose calculator tools or published in other studies, which were obtained using mathematical phantoms in different CT systems. For the protocol with TCM organ doses were reduced by between 28 and 36%, compared to the results obtained using a fixed mA value.ConclusionsThe developed simulation program provides a useful tool for assessing doses in a 320 detector-row cone-beam CT scanner using ICRP adult reference computational phantoms and is ready to be applied to more complex protocols. 相似文献

Virtual clinical trials (VCT) are in-silico reproductions of medical examinations, which adopt digital models of patients and simulated devices. They are intended to produce clinically equivalent outcome data avoiding long execution times, ethical issues related to radiation induced risks and huge costs related to real clinical trials with a patient population. In this work, we present a platform for VCT in 2D and 3D X-ray breast imaging. The VCT platform uses Monte Carlo simulations based on the Geant4 toolkit and patient breast models derived from a cohort of high resolution dedicated breast CT (BCT) volume data sets. Projection images of the breast and three-dimensional glandular dose maps are generated for a given breast model, by simulating both 2D full-field digital mammography (DM) and 3D BCT examinations. Uncompressed voxelized breast models were derived from segmented patient images. Compressed versions of the digital breast phantoms for DM were generated using a previously published digital compression algorithm. The Monte Carlo simulation framework has the capability of generating and tracking ~105 photons/s using a server equipped with 16-cores and 3.0 GHz clock speed. The VCT platform will provide a framework for scanner design optimization, comparison between different scanner designs and between different modalities or protocols on computational breast models, without the need for scanning actual patients as in conventional clinical trials. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo calculate the cumulative effective and skin doses in patients that underwent repeated CT guided radiofrequency ablations (RFA).Materials and methodsFrom all patients that had undergone RFA during a five years period those which had three or more RFAs were selected. Using the CT images DICOM data, the dose length product (DLP), effective dose (E), skin dose profiles as well as the peak skin dose (PSD) were calculated, using appropriate methods and software developed for this purpose. For each patient, cumulative DLP and E were also calculated from the sum of the respective figures of each individual procedure. To calculate PSD, the skin dose profiles of each procedure were overlaid on the same Z-axis scale using anatomical landmarks for reference and the skin doses to each point were summed up.ResultsFive patients were studied; four had undergone 3 RFAs and one 10 RFAs. Cumulative DLP, E and PSD ranges were 5.6–22.3 Gy cm, 0.08–0.36 Sv and 0.8–3.4 Gy, respectively. Median E and PSD values per RFA were 35 mSv and 0.4 Gy, respectively. For comparison purposes it must be noted that in this CT department a routine abdomen-pelvis scan results to an E of about 10 mSv.ConclusionsPatients that undergo repeated RFAs are exposed to considerably high radiation exposure levels. When these patients are in the final stage of malignant diseases, stochastic effects may not be of major concern. However, optimization of the exposure factors and monitoring of these patients to avoid skin injuries are required. 相似文献

PurposeIn interventional cardiology, patients may be exposed to high doses to the skin resulting in skin burns following single or multiple procedures. Reviewing and analysing available software (online or offline) may help medical physicists assessing the maximum skin dose to the patient together with the dose distribution during (or after) these procedures.Method and resultsCapabilities and accuracy of available software were analysed through an extensive bibliography search and contacts with both vendor and authors. Their markedly differed among developers.In total, 22 software were identified and reviewed according to their algorithms and their capabilities. Special attention was dedicated to their main features and limitations of interest for the intended clinical use.While the accuracy of the 12 software products validated with measurements on phantoms was acceptable (within ± 25%), the agreement was poor for the two products validated on patients (within ± 43% and ± 76%, respectively). In addition, no software has been validated on angiographic units from all manufacturers, though several software developers claimed vendor-independent transportability. Only one software allows for multiple procedures dose calculation.ConclusionLarge differences among vendors made it clear that work remains to be done before an accurate and reliable skin dose mapping is available for all patients. 相似文献

ObjectivesTo establish national diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) in Egypt for computed tomography (CT) examinations of adults and identify the potential for optimization.MethodsData from 3762 individual patient’s undergoing CT scans of head, chest (high resolution), abdomen, abdomen-pelvis, chest-abdomen-pelvis and CT angiography (aorta and both lower limbs) examinations in 50 CT facilities were collected. This represents 20% of facilities in the country and all of the 27 Governorates. Results were compared with DRLs of UK, USA, Canada, Japan, Australia and France.ResultsThe Egyptian DRLs for CTDIvol in mGy are for head: 30, chest (high resolution): 22, abdomen (liver metastasis): 31, abdomen-pelvis: 31, chest-abdomen–pelvis: 33 and CT angiography (aorta and lower limbs): 37. The corresponding DRLs for DLP in mGy.cm are 1360, 420, 1425, 1325, 1320 and 1320. For head CT, the Egyptian DRL for CTDIvol is 2–3 times lower than the DRLs from other countries. However, the DRL in terms of DLP is in the same range or higher as compared to others. The Egyptian DRL for chest CT (high resolution) is similar to others for DLP but higher for CTDIvol. For abdomen and abdomen-pelvis DRLs for CTDIvol are higher than others. For DLP, the DRLs for abdomen are higher than DRL in UK and lower than those in Japan, while for abdomen-pelvis they are higher than other countries.ConclusionDespite lower DRLs for CTDIvol, an important consistent problem appears to be higher scan range as DRLs for DLP are higher. 相似文献
