Learning outcomes

Provide students with a basic physical knowledge of Computed Tomography and with the main techniques of reconstruction from projections, included the visualisation techniques. Analyze the radiation protection problems related to the use of CT. Analyze the methods of quantification of the image quality and his relationship with the operational parameters of the CT unit.

Program

- interaction of X-rays with matter : processes of interaction, Lambert-Beer law, attenuation coefficient
- basic physical principles of CT : projection, multiple projections
- techniques of image reconstruction from projections : Filtered Back Projection, iterative reconstructions
- Hounsfield Units
- volumetric reconstruction : 180-360 LI, Cone Beam CT
- Dual Energy CT
- CT image visualisation : windowing, MPR, 3D-rendering
- dosimetric quantities : absorbed dose, equivalent dose, effective dose, collective dose, CTDI, DLP
- patient radiation protection : radiation dose from CT exams, radiation protection guideline
- worker radiation protection : scattered radiation, radiation doses from interventional practices
- radiation dose and image quality : image quality quantification, dose-quality relationship
- noise and 'Low Contrast Resolution' : image noise measurement, noise sources in CT, quantum noise, noise and operational parameters of the CT equipment relationship
- spatial resolution and 'High Contrast Resolution' : measurement of spatial resolution, Modulation Transfer Function, spatial resolution and operational parameters of the CT equipment relationship
