Outcome of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Technique on Vascular Cognitive Impairment (VCI): Meta-Analysis

Rabarijaona Tony Manjato Ratiaray and Haibo Xu

Article Type: Review Article | First Published: March 25, 2023

The significant justification for why vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) happens is because of cerebrovascular disease. If not recognized early, this will prompt vascular dementia. To have the option to analyze VCI the assessment procedure ought to be foremost, in order to assist with effective treatment strategy to forestall extra vascular harm....

Axial Dose Profile in Head CT Scan Using a 140 kV X-Ray Beam

Arnaldo Prata Mourão and Fernanda Stephanie Santos

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: January 26, 2023

Computed Tomography (CT) has been widely used in radiological imaging diagnosis, but it generates higher doses in patients. The growing demand for tomography exams has generated concern in the scientific community in increasing the population dose generated by this technique. For this reason, it is important to know the dose distribution with a view to optimizing acquisition protocols. In this work, a standard head CT phantom made of PMMA with 16 cm in diameter was used coupled to cylindrical pl...

Pulmonary Embolism and COVID-19: A Diagnostic Dilemma – A German Single Centre Experience

M Alami, D Janati-Idrissi, T Lohmann, B Osswald, G Plehn and K Luedtke

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: January 07, 2023

The high predisposition to pulmonary embolism (PE) in CoViD-19-patients increases with its seriousness, even under anticoagulation. Because neither clinical nor laboratory parameters seem to be specific in this case, the CTPA stays the gold standard for further diagnostic, with the risk however of overuse. Our study investigates the incidence of PE in CoViD-19-patients, who underwent aCTPA, and to assess the link of several clinical and laboratory parameters with its occurrence....
