#TOMOGRAFIA DE PULMON CON CONTRASTE SKIN#
A small skin nick will be made and the Mammotome™ or core needle advanced into the breast.

The radiologist will cleanse the skin with betadine and inject lidocaine into the skin and deeper tissues. You will be positioned on the ultrasound table and the radiologist will perform an ultrasound of the breast. If you feel a need for sedation, please discuss this with the technologist prior to the day of your biopsy. Typically no sedation is necessary for this exam. Any allergy to lidocaine should also be presented to the technologist in order that an alternate medication be used. If there is a history of a bleeding diathesis, please notify the technologist. The technologist will take a careful history.

001), and the ED in 128-DSCT was lower than in 64-MDCT (13.77 ± 4 vs. There were fewer artifacts in the coronary arteries on 128-DSCT than on 64-MDCT (3 vs. 01), and in the coronary arteries (VDNR: 25.9 ± 8.2 vs. 01), in the pulmonary arteries (VDNR: 25.5 ± 10 vs. The VDNR and CNR were higher on 128-DSCT than on 64-MDCT in the aorta (VDNR: 28.9 ± 11.7 vs. There were no significant differences between 128-DSCT and 64-MDCT in the vascular density. We estimated the effective dose (ED) of radiation by means of the dose-length product. We qualitatively evaluated the artifacts in the vena cava, aorta, and coronary arteries. We quantitatively analyzed the image quality by calculating the vascular density, muscular density (DM), noise, vascular density/noise ratio (VDNR), and contrast/noise ratio (CNR). We retrospectively studied 60 patients with acute chest pain: 30 with a retrospective EKG acquisition with 64-MDCT and 30 with high pitch 128-DSCT. To compare the image quality and radiation dose from high pitch dual source CT (128-DSCT) versus those from retrospective acquisition with 64-row multidetector CT (64-MDCT) in triple rule-out studies. ConclusiónĮl pitch alto en el triple descarte disminuye la dosis de radiación y mejora la calidad de la imagen con respecto a la adquisición retrospectiva con 64-TCMD. Los artefactos coronarios (3 y 34 segmentos no diagnósticos p < 0,001) y la DRE (13,77 ± 4 y 2,77 ± 0,6 mSv p < 0,001) fueron menores con 128-TCDF. No hubo diferencias significativas en la DV. Calculamos la dosis de radiación efectiva estimada (DRE) con el producto dosis-longitud. Valoramos cualitativamente los artefactos en la vena cava, aorta y coronarias. Analizamos cuantitativamente la calidad de la imagen calculando la densidad vascular (DV), densidad muscular (DM), ruido y cocientes densidad vascular/ruido (CDVR) y contraste/ruido (CCR). Material y métodosĮstudiamos retrospectivamente 60 pacientes con dolor torácico agudo: 30 con una adquisición ECG-retrospectiva con 64-TCMD y 30 con 128-TCDF y pitch alto. Comparar la calidad de imagen y dosis de radiación de la TC de doble fuente (128-TCDF) con pitch alto y la adquisición retrospectiva con TC de 64 filas de detectores (64-TCMD) en estudios de triple descarte.
