  • Proposal of New Tracer Concentration Model in Lung PCT Study Comparison with Commonly Used Gamma-variate Model

    Publication

    - Year 2017

    Perfusion computed tomography (pCT) is one of the methods that enable non-invasive imaging of the hemodynamics of organs and tissues. On the basis of pCT measurements, perfusion parameters such as blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), mean transit time (MTT) and permeability surface (PS) are calculated and then used for quantitative evaluation of the tissue condition. To calculate perfusion parameters it is necessary to approximate...

  • Rating mathematical models for first-pass of tracer in pCT lung studies

    Publication

    - Year 2014

    This paper presents a comparison of model based on the Gauss function and the most commonly used Gamma-variate model in perfusion computed tomography (pCT) lung studies. It also verifies whether used model affects value of blood volume parameter. Three mean concentration-time curves were created from actual pCT measurements: arterial input function, blood vessels in lungs and lung parenchyma. On the basis of these mean curves we...

  • Tomografia perfuzyjna pCT w diagnostyce cukrzycowej mikroangiopatii płucnej

    Publication

    - Year 2017

    Niniejsza rozprawa jest poświęcona zagadnieniom diagnostyki mikroangiopatii płucnej ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem perfuzyjnej tomografii komputerowej (pCT). Retinopatia, nefropatia i neuropatia są znanymi powikłaniami cukrzycy. Mało poznany jest wpływ cukrzycy na funkcjonowanie układu oddechowego. Obecnie stosowana metoda diagnostyki cukrzycowej mikroangiopatii płucnej ma ograniczoną wiarygodność. W rozprawie została przedstawiona...

  • Parametric versus nonparametric modelling of dynamic susceptibility contrast enhanced MRI based data

    Publication

    - Year 2005

    Dynamic tracking of a bolus of a paramagnetic agent (dynamic susceptibility contract - DSC) in MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) measurements is successfully used for assessment of the tissue perfusion and the other features and functions of the brain (i.e. cerebral blood flow - CBF, cerebral blood volume - CBV, mean transit time - MTT). The parametric and nonparametric approaches to the identification of MRI models are presented...
