Therefore, this work aimed to analyze image performances of 05 CT scanners in 05 medical facilities in the city of Yaoundé, by using the Catphan 700 phantom and test procedures of the Atomic Energy Agency. Five quality control tests were performed on each CT-Scanner. All the CT scanners evaluated showed good results and were not disapproved in three of the five tests performed. The difference between the measured spatial resolution for each of the five CT scanners and the spatial resolution specified by the manufacturer was very high. The low contrast resolution of four of the five CT scanners was found low when compared to the low contrast resolution specified by the manufacturers.展开更多
目的 分析QC模体检测得到的7种物质的CT值,评估西门子Sensation Open CT模拟机CT值的稳定性。方法 使用Catphan 504模体定期对西门子Sensation Open CT模拟机进行QC检测。使用头部常规序列(HeadSeq)、放疗头部(RT_Head)和放疗腹部(...目的 分析QC模体检测得到的7种物质的CT值,评估西门子Sensation Open CT模拟机CT值的稳定性。方法 使用Catphan 504模体定期对西门子Sensation Open CT模拟机进行QC检测。使用头部常规序列(HeadSeq)、放疗头部(RT_Head)和放疗腹部(RT_Abdomen)3种扫描协议辅助模体中的CTP404模块获取CT图像。使用DoseLab软件对2014—2015年间收集的72张CT图像进行分析,获取每种物质CT值(记为Y),并对其进行统计分析。通过计算得到3种扫描协议下7种物质Y值的平均值、标准差、最大值、最小值和极差。结果 模块中空气、聚甲基戊烯、低密度聚乙烯、聚苯乙烯、丙烯酸、聚甲醛树酯、聚四氟乙烯标准差HeadSeq的分别为0.54、0.60、0.82、0.58、0.75、0.66、1.83 HU,RT_Head的分别0.08、0.69、0.86、0.66、0.80、0.89、2.49 HU,RT_Abdomen的分别为0.11、0.61、0.76、0.72、0.78、0.96、2.56 HU。在2年时间里西门子Sensation Open CT模拟机CT值较为稳定。结论 7种物质相比较,Teflon的CT值变化最大。不同扫描协议CT值的相对大小随不同物质相对电子密度的大小而变化。展开更多
