The continuing advances in computed tomographic (CT) technology in the past decades
have provided ongoing opportunities to improve CT image quality and clinical practice and …

OBJECTIVE. Over the last decade, rapid technologic evolution in CT has resulted in
improved spatial and temporal resolution and acquisition speed, enabling cardiothoracic CT …

Objective Very short acquisition times and the increasing use of low-kilovolt protocols in
standard computed tomographic (CT) angiography (CTA) examinations demand …

Purpose To identify the body size parameter that exhibits the best correlation with aortic and
hepatic enhancement at hepatic dynamic computed tomography (CT) in a large patient …

Many clinical applications of thoracic computed tomography (CT) require contrast medium to
enhance and delineate vascular, mediastinal, hilar, and cardiac structures, and differentiate …

Objective: We investigated the effect of low-tube-voltage CT angiography with a reduced
volume of contrast agent on qualitative and quantitative parameters and the radiation dose …

The obesity epidemic in the adult and pediatric populations affects all aspects of health care,
including diagnostic imaging. With the increasing prevalence of obese and morbidly obese …

Rationale and Objectives To investigate the effect of low-tube-voltage technique on a
cardiac computed tomography (CT) for coronary arterial and cardiac functional analyses and …

OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to investigate the effect on aortic enhancement
of contrast material volumes adjusted for a patient's body surface area (BSA) at CT …

OBJECTIVE. In this review, we attempt to address many of the issues that are related to
ensuring patient benefit in body CT, balancing the use of ionizing radiation and iodinated …
