Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, üreter taşına ait sekonder bulguların saptanmasında, düşük doz tekniği ileuygulanan kontrastsız helikal bilgisayarlı tomografi incelemesinin görüntüleme özellikleri ve tanısalduyarlılığının değerlendirilmesidir. Radyoloji Anabilim Dalı’nda, Aralık 2004 -Temmuz 2005 tarihleriarasında standart doz bilgisayarlı tomografi incelemelerinde üreter taşı saptanan 33 olguda, 30mAs/kesit efektif tüp akımı kullanılarak düşük doz bilgisayarlı tomografi tetkikleri yapıldı. Düşük dozinceleme sonuçları standart doz verileri ile karşılaştırıldı. Düşük doz bilgisayarlı tomografi ile hastayaverilen radyasyon miktarında %82’nin üzerinde azalma elde edildi. Taşa bağlı sekonder bulgularıgöstermede standart ve düşük doz tomografi incelemeleri arasında istatistiksel fark saptanmadı. (

Abstract

The aim of this study is to evaluate the imaging properties and the diagnostic sensitivity of low doseunenhanced CT technique in detecting the secondary signs that are related to the ureteral calculus.In Department of Radiology, 33 patients with the ureteral calculi on standard dose computedtomography underwent low dose tomography examination at an effective tube current of 30 mAs/slice,through December 2004 - July 2005. The results from low dose computed tomography were comparedwith the data of standard dose. A decrease of more than 82 % in the amount of radiation given to thepatient was obtained with low dose computed tomography. There was no statistically significantdifference between the standard and low dose tomography examinations in depicting the secondarysigns related to the calculus
