Evaluation of Lower-Dose Spiral Head CT for Detection of Intracranial Findings Causing Neurologic Deficits

Jeffrey Ross November 24, 2019November 25, 2019 Fellows' Journal Club, Patient Safety

Fellows’ Journal Club Projection data from 83 patients undergoing unenhanced spiral head CT for suspected neurologic deficits were collected. A routine dose was obtained using 250 effective mAs and iterative reconstruction. Lower-dose configurations were reconstructed (25-effective mAs iterative reconstruction, 50-effective

Full Dose-Reduction Potential of Statistical Iterative Reconstruction for Head CT Protocols in a Predominantly Pediatric Population

Jeffrey Ross July 24, 2016July 20, 2016 Fellows' Journal Club, Patient Safety, Pediatrics

Fellows’ Journal Club The authors set out to determine the maximum level of statistical iterative reconstruction that can be used to establish dose-reduced head CT protocols in a primarily pediatric population while maintaining similar appearance and level of image noise

MR Angiographic–Guided Percutaneous Sclerotherapy for Venous Vascular Malformations: A Radiation Dose-Reduction Strategy

Jeffrey Ross February 27, 2016February 26, 2016 Editor's Choices, Patient Safety

Editor’s Choice Editor’s Comment This case series of 5 patients describes the authors’ approach to using dynamic MRA with direct puncture of venous malformations to define the angioarchitecture and draining veins in these lesions. MultiHance in a 1:100 dilution with
