PurposeIn nuclear medicine, the standardized uptake value (SUV) obtained using positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose (FDG-PET) is widely used as a semi-quantitative diagnosis factor. We found that the header file of the Philips Allegro PET scanner using the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard was stored differently than with other scanners. Thus, the purpose of this study was to develop a DICOM header information conversion program to ensure compatibility between Allegro and other equipment.Methods and resultsThe NEMA IEC Body phantom was scanned using the Allegro PET scanner. We conducted measurements and performed calculations by using commercial software and the proposed self-developed program, respectively, to compare the SUVs by using conversion data. The program consists of three parts: an input part that can load data regardless of the number of DICOM images, and conversion and output parts that can be used to convert the DICOM header information and store it in the order of slices. The results of the calculation are in good agreement with the data measured at 12 circular regions of interest. The percent difference was lower than the 20%.ConclusionIn conclusion, this study suggested a simple and convenient method to solve the incompatibility through conversion of the DICOM header information. This study thus provides physicians more accurate information for diagnosis and treatment. 相似文献

Digital images generated by medical imaging form the basis for radiological diagnosis and surgical planning. Despite the advent of the DICOM 3.0 standard for medical image communication, widespread application of the existing information is often limited by incompatibility of the data formatting used by different equipment generations, and the manufacturer-specific standards employed. An exchange interface based on magneto optical discs has been developed to retrieve and present medical image data regardless of the technological hardware and the specific formats used. Specially adapted routines to retrieve the data first had to be developed. A modular program structure was used to allow flexibility in the implementation of further routines and other exchange media. Over 20,000 CT and MRI images including header information obtained from different General Electric and Siemens scanners were extracted successfully from MO discs. The image data were used for follow up and surgical planning and were transferred to a PAC-server. The interface proved reliable and easy to use. Support for further proprietary formats is currently being developed. The present exchange interface permits reliable retrieval of digital images for diagnostic and surgical planning purposes, regardless of the hardware generation and manufacturer-specific formats. 相似文献

This study presents the generation of a multi-block structured grid on a real abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) acquired from Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) data. With the use of a computed tomography exam (or medical images in standard DICOM format), the shape of a human organ is extracted and a structured computational grid is created. The structured grid generation is done by utilising Floater's and Gopalsamy et al.'s algorithm. The proposed methodology is applied to the AAA case, but it may also be applied to other human organs, enabling the scientist to develop an advanced patient-specific model. More importantly, the proposed methodology provides a precise reconstruction of the human organs, which is required in an AAA, where small variations in the geometry may alter the flow field, the stresses exerted on the walls and finally the rupture risk of the aneurysm. 相似文献

Protection from inappropriate or hazardous exposure to ultrasound is controlled through international standards and national regulations. IEC standard 60601 part 1 establishes requirements for the mechanical, electrical, chemical and thermal safety for all electro-medical equipment. The associated part 2 standard for diagnostic medical ultrasonic equipment sets no upper limits on ultrasonic exposure. Instead, safety indices are defined that are intended to advise users on the degree of thermal and mechanical hazard. At present the display of these safety indices satisfies regulatory requirements in both the USA and Europe. Nevertheless there are reservations about the effectiveness of this approach to protection management. In the USA, there are national regulatory limits on diagnostic exposure, based on acoustic output from clinical equipment in use over 20 years ago. The IEC 60601 part 2 standard for therapeutic equipment sets 3 W cm−2 as the limit on acoustic intensity. Transducer surface temperature is controlled for both diagnostic and therapy devices.
For airborne ultrasound, interim guidelines on limits of human exposure published by the IRPA are now 2 decades old. A limit on sound pressure level of 100 dB for the general population is recommended. The absence of protection standards for infrasound relates to difficulties in measurement at these low frequencies. 相似文献

To adopt Monte Carlo (MC) simulations as an independent dose calculation method for proton pencil beam radiotherapy, an interface that converts the plan information in DICOM format into MC components such as geometries and beam source is a crucial element. For this purpose, a DICOM-RT Ion interface (https://github.com/topasmc/dicom-interface) has been developed and integrated into the TOPAS MC code to perform such conversions on-the-fly. DICOM-RT objects utilized in this interface include Ion Plan (RTIP), Ion Beams Treatment Record (RTIBTR), CT image, and Dose. Beamline geometries, gantry and patient coordinate systems, and fluence maps are determined from RTIP and/or RTIBTR. In this interface, DICOM information is processed and delivered to a MC engine in two steps. A MC model, which consists of beamline geometries and beam source, to represent a treatment machine is created by a DICOM parser of the interface. The complexities from different DICOM types, various beamline configurations and source models are handled in this step. Next, geometry information and beam source are transferred to TOPAS on-the-fly via the developed TOPAS extensions. This interface with two treatment machines was successfully deployed into our automated MC workflow which provides simulated dose and LET distributions in a patient or a water phantom automatically when a new plan is identified. The developed interface provides novel features such as handling multiple treatment systems based on different DICOM types, DICOM conversions on-the-fly, and flexible sampling methods that significantly reduce the burden of handling DICOM based plan or treatment record information for MC simulations. 相似文献

The introduction of the Consumer Protection Act 1987 brought the problems of product liability directly into hospital bioengineering and medical physics departments. This law makes great demands upon manufacturers, but also on suppliers and maintainers of medical equipment. Departments which manage medical equipment carry a responsibility for ensuring the requirements of product liability are known by all those whose actions may affect the potential of a piece of equipment to injure or damage a patient. This paper addresses these problems from a bioengineering, rather than a legal, viewpoint. The problems of design, manufacture, modification, maintenance and use are discussed and examples of potential problems are identified. The paper concludes that as long as good standards of quality control and professionalism are applied in bioengineering and medical physics departments then there is little to be feared from this piece of legislation. 相似文献

Synthetic biology is a recently emerging field that applies engineering formalisms to design and construct new biological parts, devices, and systems for novel functions or life forms that do not exist in nature. Synthetic biology relies on and shares tools from genetic engineering, bioengineering, systems biology and many other engineering disciplines. It is also different from these subjects, in both insights and approach. Applications of synthetic biology have great potential for novel contributions to established fields and for offering opportunities to answer fundamentally new biological questions. This article does not aim at a thorough survey of the literature and detailing progress in all different directions. Instead, it is intended to communicate a way of thinking for synthetic biology in which basic functional elements are defined and assembled into living systems or biomaterials with new properties and behaviors. Four major application areas with a common theme are discussed and a procedure (or "protocol") for a standard synthetic biology work is suggested. 相似文献

The standard of professional candour with patients has undergone a significant change over the past 30 years. Independent of their obligation to disclose information necessary for informed consent, physicians are increasingly expected to communicate important information to patients that is not immediately related to treatment decisions. The purpose of truth telling is not simply to enable patients to make informed choices about health care and other aspects of their lives but also to inform them about their situation. Truth telling fosters trust in the medical profession and rests on the respect owed to patients as persons. It also prevents harm, as patients who are uninformed about their situation may fail to get medical help when they should. 相似文献

Musculo-skeletal modelling, 3D printing of bone models and also custom design of relevant prostheses starts from accurate STL files. These are obtained from medical imaging after careful segmentation and 3D reconstruction using specialized software, but most of these are very expensive. The aim of the present study is to assess and compare alternative software available for free. Three freeware software were selected from the most popular, and one standard platform was made available at the institute of the authors. Using each of these four software and starting from available DICOM files obtained previously by a CT scanner, three different bone models were reconstructed from each of five different human anatomical areas for a total of 60 bone model reconstructions. A young radiographer performed the bone reconstruction without specific technical training. 3D spatial matching of corresponding anatomical models was also performed to determine distance-maps for the assessment of final surface quality. In all four software many valuable features were available, with minimum differences, and bone models of good quality were obtained. Large differences in file sizes (mean range over the five anatomical models 66-338) and in the number of triangles (870-1350 thousands) were found, with triangles for MByte ratio ranging from about 4 to 20 thousands. The distance-map analysis revealed that root mean square deviation averaged over the five anatomical models ranged from 0.13 to 2.21 mm for the six spatial matches between the four software. These software are suitable for 3D bone model reconstruction, and do not require special training, and as such these can open up opportunities for biomechanical modelling and medical education. 相似文献

Users of in-dwelling medical devices, prostheses and surgical dressings rely implicitly on their sterility. Rarely do consumers give any thought to what sterility really means. The general assumption is that manufacturers have adopted the most efficient and cost-effective methods of achieving sterility. Currently, terminal sterilization processes appropriate for the manufacture of medical devices are those that are deemed to give less than one chance in a million of a single, finished product item containing a viable organism. Such a definition of sterility is embodied in the European standard EN556 as a Sterility Assurance Level of 10(-6), based on the properties of heat-resistant endospores. However, is this level of sterility assurance appropriate for all categories of medical device? Moreover, do all medical devices which are labelled as sterile require the same level of treatment? This paper will demonstrate that in some instances, the high standards set for sterilization processing are unreasonable, not cost-effective and exclude new sterilization technologies from being accepted by the regulatory authorities. 相似文献
