Ge lightspeed vct scanner

Manufactured by GE Healthcare

Sourced in United States

The GE LightSpeed VCT scanner is a computed tomography (CT) imaging system designed for diagnostic imaging. It features a high-speed data acquisition system that allows for rapid image acquisition with excellent spatial and temporal resolution. The scanner is capable of capturing images of the human body in a non-invasive manner, providing healthcare professionals with detailed information to support clinical decision-making.

CT Imaging of Pulmonary Nodules: Protocol for Radiologists

All patients underwent chest thin-section CT examinations in the supine position
using the GE LightSpeed VCT scanner or GE BrightSpeed Elite 16 scanner (GE
Healthcare, Milwaukee, USA). Scans were performed from the lung apex to the lung
base using the following parameters: tube voltage 120 kV, tube current automatic
mA, helical pitch 0.938, rotation speed 0.6 s, slice thickness, and spacing
5 mm. CT images were reconstructed with a slice thickness of 1.00 to 1.25 mm.
The images were reviewed by 2 chest radiologists with more than 10 years of
experience together. If there was a disagreement between the 2 radiologists, a
third radiologist with 20 years of experience conducted a further review. During
this procedure, the following image features were recorded, including maximum
lesion diameter, spicule sign, and vacuolation sign. In addition, some clinical
data of these patients were collected through the clinical information system,
including age, gender, interval to pulmonary nodules (ITP), carcino-embryonic
antigen (CEA), and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125). The above data were
summarized in a table consisting of clinical characteristics.

Chest CT Imaging Protocol for Lung Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

All patients underwent chest CT examinations in the supine position by using the GE BrightSpeed Elite 16 scanner or GE LightSpeed VCT scanner (GE Healthcare, Milwaukee, USA) or Siemens SOMATOM Definition AS+ scanner (Siemens Healthineers, Milwaukee, Germany). The scanning range was from the apex to the bottom of the lung. The scanning parameters were as follows: tube voltage 120 kV, tube current automatic mA, helical pitch 0.938, rotation speed 0.6 s, slice thickness and spacing 5 mm. CT images were reconstructed with a slice thickness of 0.625–1.25 mm using a lung kernel as part of the reconstruction process.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
