Background Varying degrees of partial volume error depending on the complexity of the endocardial borders are inevitable in threshold-based cardiac computed tomography (CT) ventricular volumetry. These errors can potentially be reduced by using a partial voxel interpolation (PVI) method, but this has not been tested for cardiac CT ventricular *** To evaluate the partial volume error-reducing effects of the PVI method in cardiac CT ventricular volumetry among patients with congenital heart disease (CHD).Materials and methods The cardiac CT ventricular volumetry data were obtained from 55 patients (median age 12.0 years) with CHD. The ventricular and myocardial volumes, ejection fraction and ventricular mass-volume ratio were quantified and compared before and after the PVI method. The correlation between the myocardial volumes in the end-systolic and end-diastolic phases was tested. The effect of the PVI method on the classification of ventricular hypertrophy was *** The indexed ventricular volumes after PVI were significantly smaller (7.4-11.5%) than those before PVI (P<0.001). In contrast, the indexed myocardial volumes were significantly larger (6.2-27.7%) after PVI (P<0.001). The ejection fractions and mass-volume ratios were significantly larger (1.6-2.2% and 19.7-42.5%, respectively) after PVI (PP<0.001, respectively). The indexed myocardial masses showed prominently high correlation between the end-systolic and end-diastolic phases (R, 0.961-0.990;P<0.001). The proportions of no and severe hypertrophy were significantly decreased (P<0.002) and increased (P<0.032), respectively, after the application of the PVI *** The PVI method can reduce partial volume error in cardiac CT ventricular volumetry among patients with CHD.

EUROPEAN RADIOLOGY 2012年第4期22卷 731-737页

作者： Liden, Mats Andersson, Torbjorn Broxvall, Mathias Thunberg, Per Geijer, Hakan Orebro Univ Hosp Dept Radiol S-70185 Orebro Sweden Univ Orebro Sch Hlth & Med Sci S-70182 Orebro Sweden Univ Orebro Ctr Modelling & Simulat S-70182 Orebro Sweden Orebro Univ Hosp Dept Med Phys S-70185 Orebro Sweden

The size estimation in CT images of an obstructing ureteral calculus is important for the clinical management of a patient presenting with renal colic. The objective of the present study was to develop a reader independent urinary calculus segmentation algorithm using well-known digital image processing steps and to validate the method against size estimations by several readers. Fifty clinical CT examinations demonstrating urinary calculi were included. Each calculus was measured independently by 11 readers. The mean value of their size estimations was used as validation data for each calculus. The segmentation algorithm consisted of interpolated zoom, binary thresholding and morphological operations. Ten examinations were used for algorithm optimisation and 40 for validation. Based on the optimisation results three segmentation method candidates were identified. Between the primary segmentation algorithm using cubic spline interpolation and the mean estimation by 11 readers, the bias was 0.0 mm, the standard deviation of the difference 0.26 mm and the Bland-Altman limits of agreement 0.0 +/- 0.5 mm. The validation showed good agreement between the suggested algorithm and the mean estimation by a large number of readers. The limit of agreement was narrower than the inter-reader limit of agreement previously reported for the same data. The size of kidney stones is usually estimated manually by the radiologist. An algorithm for computer-aided size estimation is introduced. The variability between readers can be reduced. A reduced variability can give better information for treatment decisions.

Purpose To validate a simulation environment for virtual planning of percutaneous cryoablation of renal tumors. Materials and Methods Prospectively collected data from 19 MR-guided procedures were used for validation of the simulation model. Volumetric overlap of the simulated ablation zone volume (sigma) and the segmented ablation zone volume (S;assessed on 1-month follow-up scan) was quantified. Validation metrics were DICE Similarity Coefficient (DSC;the ratio between twice the overlapping volume of both ablation zones divided by the sum of both ablation zone volumes), target overlap (the ratio between the overlapping volume of both ablation zones to the volume ofS;low ratio meansSis underestimated), and positive predictive value (the ratio between the overlapping volume of both ablation zones to the volume of sigma;low ratio meansSis overestimated). Values were between 0 (no alignment) and 1 (perfect alignment), a value > 0.7 is considered good. Results Mean volumes ofSand sigma were 14.8 cm(3)(+/- 9.9) and 26.7 cm(3)(+/- 15.0), respectively. Mean DSC value was 0.63 (+/- 0.2), and >= 0.7 in 9 cases (47%). Mean target overlap and positive predictive value were 0.88 (+/- 0.11) and 0.53 (+/- 0.24), respectively. In 17 cases (89%), target overlap was >= 0.7;positive predictive value was >= 0.7 in 4 cases (21%) and < 0.6 in 13 cases (68%). This indicatesSis overestimated in the majority of cases. Conclusion The validation results showed a tendency of the simulation model to overestimate the ablation effect. Model adjustments are necessary to make it suitable for clinical use.

ABDOMINAL IMAGING 2008年第4期33卷 463-468页

作者： Wang, Li Li, Zhao-shen Lu, Jian-ping Wang, Fei Liu, Qi Tian, Jian-ming Changhai Hosp Dept Gastroenterol Shanghai 200433 Peoples R China Changhai Hosp Dept Radiol Shanghai 200433 Peoples R China

Background: To investigate characteristic features of three-dimensional dynamic contrast- enhanced MR angiography ( 3D DCE-MRA) and validate its clinical significance for the diagnosis of cavernous transformation of the portal vein ( CTPV). Methods: 3D DCE-MRA, along with subsequent data processing using three-dimensional reconstruction, was performed in 33 CTPV patients. We observed 33 emboli in the portal vein, 29 in the left and/or right portal branches, 18 in the superior mesenteric vein, and nine emboli in the splenic vein. Results: The main presentation of CTPV on 3D DCE-MRA was the replacement of the normal configuration of the portal vein by numerous distorted hepatopetal collateral vessels, the presence of arterio-portal venous shunts, and the appearance of hepatofugal collateral vessels in the abdominal cavity and wall. Conclusion: 3D DCE-MRA can be used to simultaneously characterize the portal system and collateral vessels, and can improve the diagnosis and clinical treatment of CTPV.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the radial forearm free flap (RFFF) volume changes and speech and swallowing outcomes. Methods: The study included 18 subjects with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral tongue. Results: Average percentage changes in flap volume between 3 and 12 months was 19.2%. Postoperative free flap volume changes were significantly and negatively correlated with the word and sentence intelligibility (Y= -0.338X + 43.641, r(2) = 0.383, p = 0.006 and Y= -0.246X + 34.322, r(2) = 0.321, p = 0.014, respectively). A significant positive correlation was also found between word and sentence intelligibility and floor of mouth resected, postoperative irradiation. Postoperative flap volume changes between 3 and 12 months were correlated with reduced posterior bolus movement by tongue (p = 0.002), reduced tongue base to posterior pharyngeal wall contact (p = 0.002), reduced laryngeal elevation (p = 0.005), increased aspiration (p = 0.005), delayed oral (p = 0.010) and pharyngeal transit time (p = 0.011). Floor of mouth resected, tongue base resected, and postoperative irradiation also influenced the swallowing outcomes. Conclusions: This study shows that postoperative flap volume changes are significantly related to speech and swallowing outcomes in patients undergoing partial glossectomy reconstructed with RFFF.

Objective Detection of explosives is a challenge due to the use of improvised and concealed bombs. Post-bomb strike bodies are handled by emergency and forensic teams. We aimed to determine whether medical dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) algorithm and prediction model can readily detect and distinguish a range of explosives on the human body during disaster victim identification (DVI) processes of bombings. Materials and Methods A medical DECT of 8 explosives (Semtex, Pastex, Hexamethylene triperoxide diamine, Acetone peroxide, Nitrocellulose, Pentrite, Ammonium Nitrate, and classified explosive) was conducted ex-vivo and on an anthropomorphic phantom. Hounsfield unit (HU), electron density (ED), effective atomic number (Z(eff)), and dual energy index (DEI),were compared by Wilcoxon signed rank test. Intra-class (ICC) and Pearson correlation coefficients (r) were computed. Explosives classification was performed through a prediction model with test-retest samples. Results Except for DEI (p = 0.036), means of HU, ED, and Z(eff) were not statistically different (p > 0.05) between explosives ex-vivo and on the phantom (r > 0.80). Intra- and inter-reader ICC were good to excellent: 0.806 to 0.997 and 0.890, respectively. Except for the phantom DEI, all measurements from each individual explosive differed significantly. HU, ED, Z(eff), and DEI differed depending on the type of explosive. Our decision tree provided Z(eff) and ED for explosives classification with high accuracy (83.7%) and excellent reliability (100%). Conclusion Our medical DECT algorithm and prediction model can readily detect and distinguish our range of explosives on the human body. This would avoid possible endangering of DVI staff.

PEDIATRIC CARDIOLOGY 2024年第1期45卷 24-31页

作者： Goo, Hyun Woo Park, Sang Hyub Univ Ulsan Asan Med Ctr Coll Med Dept Radiol 88 Olymp Ro43 Gil Seoul 05505 South Korea Univ Ulsan Res Inst Radiol Asan Med Ctr 88 Olymp Ro43 Gil Seoul 05505 South Korea

Detailed three-dimensional cardiac segmentations using cardiac computed tomography (CT) data is technically feasible in patients with Ebstein anomaly, but its complementary role has not been evaluated. This single-center, retrospective study was aimed to evaluate the complementary role of cardiac CT ventricular volumetry in evaluating the severity of Ebstein anomaly. Preoperative cardiac CT ventricular volumetry was performed in 21 children with Ebstein anomaly. CT-based ventricular functional measures were compared between Carpentier types, and between definitive surgical repair types. The Celermajer severity index measured with echocardiography was correlated with CT-based functional parameters. Total right ventricle (RV) and functional RV (fRV) volumes, fRV fraction, fRV/left ventricle (LV) volume ratio, and end-diastolic CT severity index demonstrated statistically significant differences between Carpentier type A/B and Carpentier type C/D (p < 0.05). The Celermajer severity index measured with echocardiography showed a high positive correlation with the end-diastolic CT severity index (R = 0.720, p < 0.002). There were no statistically significant differences in both echocardiography- and CT-based functional measures between patients with biventricular repair and patients with one-and-a-half or univentricular repair (p > 0.05). Compared with echocardiography, cardiac CT ventricular volumetry can provide the severity of Ebstein anomaly objectively and may be used in select patients when echocardiographic results are inconclusive or inconsistent.

Objective: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a recurrent chronic disorder characterised by fluctuations in mood and energy disposition. Diseases could lead to degenerative alterations in brain structures such as corpus callosum (CC). Studies demonstrated that abnormalities in CC are associated with BD symptoms. The present study aims to analyse the CC of the patients with statistical shape analysis (SSA) and compare the findings with healthy controls. Methods: Forty-one BD patients and 41 healthy individuals in similar age groups, which included 23 female and 18 male subjects, participated in the study. CC was marked with landmarks on the mid-sagittal images of each individual. The mean ' Procrustes ' point was calculated, and shape deformations were analysed with thin-plate spline analysis. Results: Significant differences were observed in the shape of CC between the two groups, where maximum CC deformation was observed in posterior region marks in BD patients. There was no significant difference between the CC area of the BD patients and controls. Conclusions: CC analysis conducted with SSA revealed significant differences between patients and healthy controls. The study findings emphasised the abnormal distribution of white matter in CC and the variable subregional nature of CC in BD patients. This study may enable the development of more targeted and effective treatment strategies by taking into account biological factors and understanding the differences in the brain regions of individuals with BD.

SURGICAL AND RADIOLOGIC ANATOMY 2012年第3期34卷 235-247页

Sectioned images of cadavers enable creation of realistic three-dimensional (3D) models. In order to build a 3D model of a structure, the structure has to be outlined in the sectioned images. The outlining process is time consuming;therefore, users want to be provided with outlined images. The more detailed structures are outlined, the greater potential for wider application of the outlined images. In the Visible Korean, sectioned images (intervals 0.2 mm) of the entire body of a male cadaver were prepared. In the available 1,702 sectioned images (intervals 1 mm), 937 structures were outlined over a period of 8 years. The outlined images were altered to black-filled images for each structure;black-filled images were selected for distribution in order to maintain small file sizes. We attempted to determine whether black-filled images could be used in various situations. The outlines of these images were interpolated for production of new images at 0.2 mm intervals. The outlines were then filled with different colors for construction of color-filled images of all structures. Volume and surface reconstructions of the black-filled images were executed in order to build volume and surface models. The black-filled images with corresponding sectioned images presented here are the source of realistic 3D models for use in medical simulation systems.

ANATOMICAL RECORD 1996年第1期244卷 70-77页

作者： OBrien, GM Department of Physiology and Pharmacology University of Queensland Queensland 4072 Australia

Background: Investigations of reproductive endocrinology of flying foxes (genus Pteropus) have been hampered by inadequate information on the normal morphology of the megachiropteran pituitary. Methods: The novel technique of graphical three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction, supported by more traditional anatomical techniques, have now been used to examine the shapes of, the interrelations between, the lobes of the pituitary of the little red flying fox, Pteropus scapulatus. Statistical analysis of data from three species tested whether there were changes in pituitary size with annual cycles in function, particularly with key stages of reproduction. Results: In the three species of Australian flying foxes examined, the hypophyseal cleft is closed;the pars intermedia extends over the rostral, ventral, and lateral surfaces of the neural lobe, The pars distalis is broad rostrally and extends over two-thirds of the lateral and ventral pars intermedia. The hypophyseal recess is broad at the median eminence, then narrows and extends through the infundibulum to, but not into, the neural lobe, In adult animals the pituitary weight was 10.0 +/- 0.3 mg (mean +/- s.e.) in P. scapulatus, 14.7 +/- 0.5 mg in Pteropus poliocephalus (greyheaded flying foxes), and 18.7 +/- 1.5 mg in Pteropus alecto (black flying foxes). Pituitary weight was not significantly affected by reproductive stage. Conclusions: Thus histologically, the adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis are similar to those of other mammals. Comparative differences in pituitary size reflected differences in species body size rather than cyclical reproduction. (C) 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
