Preoperative chest CT examinations were conducted using multidetector-row CT systems at the respective hospitals. Xiangtan Central Hospital employed either the Revolution CT (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL) or MX16 CT (Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands), while The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University utilized the uCT550 or uCT760 (Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare, Shanghai, China). The imaging protocol included obtaining images in the supine position, covering the area from the lung apex to below the costophrenic angle, with breath-hold helical scanning. Volumetric CT parameters consisted of a tube voltage of 120 kV, a tube current–time product ranging from 180 to 280 mA, a matrix size of 512 × 512, and image preprocessing. CT image reconstruction was conducted using a standard algorithm, with a layer thickness of 0.55–0.625 mm and layer interval of 0.55–0.625 mm.

Each patient was placed in the supine position on the CT machine (uCT760 or Umi780, United Imaging, Shanghai, China; Precison32, Campo imaging, Shenyang, China) and scanned during the inspiratory phase. Images were reconstructed with a slice thickness of 1 mm and an interval of 1 mm.
Lung CT images were screened by three imaging physicians who were blind to the RT-PCR results and clinical information. The CT images were independently read by two radiologists with more than 5 years’ experience in the diagnosis of chest CT scans. In case of dispute, they discussed and reached a consensus that was reviewed by a senior imaging physician with more than 10 years of experience.

All CT studies were performed with contrast agents, and they followed a standardized protocol on one of the three CT systems: Brilliance iCT scanner (Philips Healthcare), uCT 760 (United Imaging), and SOMATOM Perspective (Siemens Healthineers). The main scanning parameters were as follows: tube voltage = 120 kV, automatic tube current modulation (30–70 mAs), pitch = 1.0–1.5. mm, matrix = 512 × 512, slice thickness = 5 mm, field of view 350 × 350 mm. All images were reconstructed to 0.625–1.25-mm thickness. Other findings of imaging studies, such as brain MRI or 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT, were also reviewed to identify new lesions and assess non-target lesions.

Patients were scanned either with a 16-detector row CT scanner (Aquilion 16; Toshiba Medical, Tokyo, Japan) or a 128-slice CT scanner (uCT 760; United Imaging, Shanghai, China). The acquisition parameters of the 16-detector row CT scanner were set at 120 kVp of tube voltage, 160 mA maximum automatic tube current modulation, 0.5 s gantry rotation speed, and 16 × 0.5 mm beam collimation. Additionally, the acquisition parameters of the 128-slice CT scanner were set at 120 kV tube voltage, 446 mA maximum uDose® Intelligent Tube Current Modulation, 64 × 0.5 mm collimation, and 1.5 mm at 1-mm increments. The raw data were reconstructed to 0.5 mm thickness at 0.5 mm intervals using a high-spatial-frequency algorithm for lung parenchyma. Multiplanar reconstructions were performed for the morphological features of lesions and adjacent bronchi. Dynamic contrast-enhanced CT imaging was performed following intravenous injection of 40–80 mL of contrast medium (Ioversol, 300 mg iodine/mL; Hengrui, Lianyungang, China) at a rate of 3 mL/s with a power injector.

All scans were performed with the patient in the supine position during end-inspiration without intravenous contrast on two CT scanners, uCT 760 and uMI 780 scanners (United Imaging). The scanning range was from the apex to lung base. All images were obtained with a standard dose scanning protocol, reconstructed at 1.0 mm slice thickness, with 1 mm increment, 512 mm × 512 mm, and a sharp reconstruction kernel (B_VSHARP_B). Lung window setting was with a window level of − 600 Hounsfield units (HU) and window width of 1500 HU.

Pulmonary CT was performed using 64-, 256-, and 128-slice multidetector row CT scanners (64: Somatom, Siemens Healthcare; 256: Brilliance-16P, Philips Healthcare; 128: uCT 760, United Imaging Healthcare). CT scans were obtained with the following parameters: 120 kV, adaptive tube current, a matrix of 512 × 512, and a beam collimation of 64 × 0.6 mm2, 256 × 0.6 mm2, and 128 × 0.6 mm2. Non-enhanced CT at a slice thickness of 1.0 mm, 1.0 mm, and 0.625 mm was performed, respectively. Images were captured at window settings that allowed viewing of the lung parenchyma (window level and width, − 600 to − 700 HU and 1200–1500 HU, respectively) and the mediastinum (window level and width, 20–40 HU and 400 HU, respectively). The scanning range covered the area from the height level of the superior aperture of the thorax to the diaphragm.

128-slice CT scanner 19 , which had been previously incorporated into the MCNPX Monte Carlo code 20 for calculations of radiation dose of various organs, however, not for pregnant patients. The geometries of the three CT gantries, including the source to detector distance, focal spot size, fan angle, etc., had been taken into account in the simulation of corresponding CT scanners as shown in Figure 2. Simulations of x-ray photon transport were performed to yield dose calculations based on 44 pregnant-female phantoms where the fetal radiation dose refers to the total deposited energy in the fetal body divided by the body weight of the fetus. For each phantom, the simulated energy deposition in 25 fetal organs and maternal body were recorded and used for the radiation dosimetry calculations.
For each patient phantom and for each organ, the simulated radiation doses were averaged across all three simulated CT scanners. The detailed Data processing and correlation analysis methods are provided in Supplemental Materials.

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.
