THE TECHNICAL FACTORS AFFECTING THE QUALITY OF DIAGNOSIS IN ABDOMEN OF

CONTRAST – ENHANCED CT

CN: Phạm VănĐiệp CN: Nguyễn Quang Trung

Radiology Department–Hanoi Medical University Hospital

OVERVIEW

• CT scan of the abdomen with an injection of contrast is a method of high diagnostic value in abdominal pathologyg g p gy

• The diagnostic value after the visit depends on the image quality obtained after the scan

• Requirements: Optimal image quality and ensure the lowest di ti d d d

- The purpose of contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is to find pathology by enhancing the contrast between a lesion and the normal

surrounding structures.

- Sometimes a lesion will be hypovascular compared to the normal tissue and in some cases a lesion will be hypervascular to the surrounding tissue in a certain phase of enhancement.

- So it is important to know in which phase a CT should be performed depending on the pathology of patient

THE PHASES OF CECT

(3)

3 Purpose:

NON- ENHANCED CT (NECT)

Purpose:

• Detection of stones in kidney, ureter • Detection of calcifications in liver,

pancreas • Fat inlivertumors • Fat in adrenal adenoma

4

Timing:

EARLY ARTERIAL PHASE

15-20 sec pre injection or immediately after bolustracking

Purpose:

• Detection of dissection of aorta, arterial bleeding

• Insulinoma

(5)

5 Timing:

• 35-40 sec p.i or 15-20 sec after

LATE ARTERIAL PHASE

p bolustracking

Purpose:

Detection of

• Liver: HCC-FNH-Adenoma

• Pancreas : Adenocarcinoma, insulinoma

• Bowel ischemia

(6)

6 Timing:

HEPATIC PHASE

• 70-80 sec p.i or 50-60 sec after bolustracking

Purpose:

• Enhancement of the hepatic parenchyma

• Detection of hypovascular liver lesions: cysts, abscess, most metastases

(7)

7 Timing:

NEPHROGENIC PHASE

Timing:

• 100 sec p.i or 80 sec after bolustracking

Purpose :

• Enhancement of all renal parenchyma

• Detection of renal cell carcinoma

(8)

8 Timing:

DELAYED PHASE

• After 6-10 minutes p.i

Purpose:

• Enhancement of fibrotic lesions

• Enhancement of kidney and urinary

collecting system

• Detection of cholangiocarcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma

cell carcinoma

9 TIMING OF CT-SERIES THE FACTORS TOTAL AMOUNT OF CONTRAST INJECTION RATE ANOTHER FACTORS

-In many protocols a standard dose is given related to the weight of

Total amount of

contrast

the patient:

Weight < 75kg : 100cc Weight 75-90kg: 120cc Weight > 90kg : 150cc

In some protocols we always want to give the maximum dose of - In some protocols we always want to give the maximum dose of

150cc, like when you are looking for a pancreatic carcinoma or liver

metastases

CREATININE CLEARANCE

• Recommended injection rate of 5cc/sec using G18 I.V

INJECTION RATE

when evaluating the kinetics of lesions

• Unneccessary in case just focus at hepatic phase or having problem with machine, line,

(11)

11

INJECTION RATE

Patient with liver cirrhosis and multifocal HCC injected at 2.5 ml/sec and at 5ml/sec

INJECTION RATE

Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved devices for power/pressure injection as below:

Injection rates for 24G catheters up to ml/s Injection rates for 22G catheters up to ml/s Injection rates for 20G catheter up to ml/s Injection rates for 18G catheter up to ml/s

(12)

TIMING OF CT-SERIES

 Timing of CT-series is important in order to grab the right moment of maximal contrast differences between a lesion and the normal parenchyma

 The protocol we choose to visit depends very much on the clinical diagnosis

 CT generation

 Supply of heart and body condition of patients

LIVER

The phases :

 NECT (non-enhanced CT)  Arterial phase (35 sec)  Hepatic phase (70 sec)  Delayed phase (3 - mins)

BLOOD VESSEL

Dissection of superior mesenteric artery

 Depending on machines, equipment, medical facility.

ANOTHER FACTORS

 Factors of age, weight, heart disease, vascular.

 Experience of doctor and technicians.

(19)

19 The delay time of post injection should be determined by

ANOTHER FACTORS

considering three factors:

● Time of contrast injection

● Arrival time of contrast medicine

● Scanning time (depending on the type of CT machine)

 CECT is a valuable diagnostic method, especially in emergency medical conditions

CONCLUDE

 For good diagnostic results, the image quality after scan is very important

 Equipment and experience of technicians is very important  Collaboration between doctors and technicians
