Abstract: | Objectives To systematically evaluate the influence of acquisition settings in conjunction with raw-data based iterative image reconstruction (IR) on lung densitometry based on multi-row detector computed tomography (CT) in an anthropomorphic chest phantom. Materials and methods Ten porcine heart-lung explants were mounted in an ex vivo chest phantom shell, six with highly and four with low attenuating chest wall. CT (Somatom Definition Flash, Siemens Healthineers) was performed at 120kVp and 80kVp, each combined with current-time products of 120, 60, 30, and 12mAs, and was reconstructed with filtered back projection (FBP) and IR (Safire, Siemens Healthineers). Mean lung density (LD), air density (AD) and noise were measured by semi-automated region-of interest (ROI) analysis, with 120kVp/120 mAs serving as the standard of reference. Results Using IR, noise in lung parenchyma was reduced by ~ 31% at high attenuating chest wall and by ~ 22% at low attenuating chest wall compared to FBP, respectively (p<0.05). IR induced changes in the order of ±1 HU to mean absolute LD and AD compared to corresponding FBP reconstructions which were statistically significant (p<0.05). Conclusions Densitometry is influenced by acquisition parameters and reconstruction algorithms to a degree that may be clinically negligible. However, in longitudinal studies and clinical research identical protocols and potentially other measures for calibration may be required. |
