Orphan date July 2009 The computedtomography dose index CTDI is a commonly used radiation exposure index in Computedtomography X ray computedtomography and is reported by the CT manufacturers to scan personnel for each exam. Definitions It is defined by the US Department of Health and Human Services HHS as the average dose imparted by a single axial acquisition to a standard 100 mm pencil chamber dosimeter inside a PMMA phantom over the width of 14 CT slices math CTDI frac 1 nT int 7T 7T D z dz math where math n math is the number of slices acquired, math T math is the slice thickness and math D z math is the radiation dose measured at position math z math along the scanner s main axis. This equation is often used in a modified form math CTDI 100 frac 1 nT int 50 mm 50 mm D a z dz math . The dose absorbed in air math D a z math can be conveniently assessed with a 100 mm standard pencil dose chamber. Typically, the dose distribution within the body cross section imparted by a CT scan is much more homogeneous than that imparted by radiography, but in still somewhat larger near the skin than in the body center. Therefore, a third measure, the weighted CTDI was introduced math CTDI w frac 1 3 CTDI 100 central frac 2 3 CTDI 100 peripheral . math Similar measures with yet wider chambers are useful for CT systems with large numbers of detector rows. ref refGeleijns2009 Geleijns 2009 ref Notes reflist 2 References cite id refRothenberg2000 Rothenberg, LN and Pentlow, KS 2000 .

No footnotes article date April 2009 ComputedTomography Laser Mammography CTLM is the trademark of Imaging Diagnostic Systems, Inc. IDSI, USA for its Optical tomography optical tomographic technique for female breast imaging. This medical imaging technique uses laser energy in the near infrared region of the spectra, to detect angiogenesis in the breast tissue. It is optical molecular imaging for hemoglobin both oxygenated and deoxygenated. The technology uses laser in the same way computedtomography uses X Rays, these beams travel through tissue and suffer attenuation. A laser detector measures the intensity drop and the data is collected as the laser detector moves across the breast creating a tomography image. CTLM images show hemoglobin distribution in a tissue and can detect areas of Angiogenesis surrounding malignant tumors, that stimulate this angiogenesis to obtain nutrients for growth.

Diagnostic infobox Name PAGENAME Image Caption PET scan of a normal 20 year old brain. ICD10 C030 ICD9 MeshID OPS301 OtherCodes Positron emission tomography PET measures emissions from radioactively labeled metabolically active chemicals that have been injected into the bloodstream. The emission data are computer processed to produce multi dimensional images of the distribution of the chemicals throughout the brain. ref Lars Goran Nilsson and Hans J. Markowitsch 1999 . Cognitive Neuroscience of Memory . Seattle Hogrefe & Huber Publishers., page 57 ref Process The positron emitting radioisotope s used are usually produced by a cyclotron , and chemicals are labeled with these radioactive atoms. The labeled compound, called a radiotracer , is injected into the bloodstream and eventually makes its way to the brain through blood circulation. Detectors in the PET scanner detect the radioactivity as the compound accumulates in various regions of the brain. A computer uses the data gathered by the detectors to create multi dimensional normally 3 dimensional volumetric or 4 dimensional time varying images that show the distribution of the radiotracer in the brain. Especially useful are a wide array of ligands used to map different aspects of neurotransmitter activity, with by far the most commonly used PET tracer being a labeled form of glucose see Fluorodeoxyglucose 18F FDG . Advantages and disadvantages The greatest benefit of PET scanning is that different compounds can show blood flow and oxygen and glucose metabolism in the tissues of the working brain. These measurements reflect the amount of brain activity in the various regions of the brain and allow to learn more about how the brain works. PET scans were superior to all other metabolic imaging methods in terms of resolution and speed of completion as little as 30 seconds , when they first became available. The improved resolution permitted better study to be made as to the area of the brain activated by a particular ... more details

The Time Resolved PhotonEmission Prober TRPE is an instrument which is used to measure timing waveforms on semiconductor devices. TRPE measurements are performed on the back side of the semiconductor device. The substrate of the device under test DUT must first be thinned mechanically. The device is mounted on a movable X Y stage in an enclosure which shields it from all sources of light. The DUT is connected to an active electrical stimulus. The stimulus pattern is continuously looped and a trigger signal is sent to the TRPE instrument in order to tell it when the pattern repeats. The TRPE prober operates in a manner similar to a sampling oscilloscope, and is used to perform semiconductor failure analysis . Theory of operation As the electrical stimulus pattern is repetitively applied to the DUT, internal transistors switch on and off. As MOSFET pMOS and MOSFET nMOS transistors switch on or off, they emit photon s. These photons emissions are recorded by a sensitive photon detector. By counting the number of photons emitted for a specific transistor across a period of time, a photon histogram may be constructed. The photon histogram records an increase in photon emissions during times that the transistor switches on or off. By detecting the combined photon emissions of pairs p and n channel transistors contained in logic gates , it is possible to use the resulting histogram to determine the locations in time of the rising and falling edges of the signal at that node. The waveform produced is not representative of a true voltage waveform, but more accurately represents the derivative of the waveform, with photon spikes being seen only at rising or falling edges.

Process tomography 1 consists of tomography tomographic imaging of systems, such as process pipes in industry. In tomography the Three dimensional space 3D distribution of some physical quantity in the object is determined. There is a widespread need to get tomographic information about process. This information can be used, for example, in the design and control of processes. Tomography involves taking measurements around the periphery of an object e.g. process vessel or patient to determine what is going on inside. The best known technique is CAT scanning in medicine , however process tomography instrumentation needs to be cheaper, faster and more robust. Many different imaging methods are used in process tomography, e.g. Medical ultrasonography ultrasonic imaging , positron emissiontomography PET , electrical resistance tomography ERT and electrical impedance tomography EIT , electrical capacitance tomography ECT , magnetic induction tomography MIT . In all cases external sensors are used to detect signals from boundary of the object, and the three dimensional material distribution or the velocity field is computed using the measured data. Process tomography is an area of rapid growth both in terms of research and applications. There are number of challenges remaining in this area including data processing an image reconstruction 2 , and application of imaging modalities in a real applications.
