Abstract

Background: Radiograph of knee joint with Kellgren and Lawrence classification system is the gold standard for assessing knee osteoarthritis. However, these grades are still obstacles. It is sometimes not appropriate to assess the progress of osteoarthritis and very long time to see the results of such progress. Osteoarthritis diagnosis and classification have been relying on qualitative visual interpretation by a radiologist. Probably difficult to determine whether there OA in the knee or not. Image quantification of digital radiography is done by measuring the joint space width and tibio femoral angle of the knee joint using the ImageJ software, with body weight variance as one factor that could affect it. Aims: This research aims to get information of body weight effect on the measurement of the joint space width and tibio femoral angle of knee joint in OA detection. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. Subjects were digital images of the knee joint anteroposterior (AP) projection using Computed Radiography (CR) from 21 respondents with specific criteria. Image is then quantified using ImageJ software to measure the joint space width and tibio femoral angle. Print out of examination visually evaluated by one radiologist to confirm the diagnosis of OA of the knee joint. Results: The value of the right knee joint space width lateral and medial (3.81 ± 1.18 and 2.42 ± 0.77), while the left lateral and medial (3.49 ± 1.11 and 2.69 ± 0.83). Tibio femoral angle range 168.44 to 178.39 with the average tibiofemoral angle right knee 175.18 ± 2.04 and 173.80 ± 2.44 left knee. Body weight has a significant correlation to the tibiofemoral angle of knee joint (p value < 0,03). Conclusion: The joint space width values that taken from digital quantificationcan be baseline data of respondents, especially for those respondents who had grade 2 or indicated osteoarthritis, to be observed or compared in the next examination.The tibio femoral angle can be addition information in relation with knee pain to detect osteoarthritis.

Abstract

The Filtered Back Projection (FBP) algorithm has been the standard algorithm for image reconstruction in computed tomography (CT) for many years, but it creates possible streak artifacts and a notable increase in image noise when radiation dose is reduced exceedingly. With technological advancement and increased computational capacities in workstations,Adaptive Statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR) algorithms have reemerged as a potential alternative. The purpose of this review is to establish if there is a general consensus that ASIR algorithms faithfully reduce radiation dose and improve image quality in CT in comparison with the FBP algorithm. A systematic review of the literature from 2011 to 2022 was conducted using Elsevier, Google Scholar, Pubmed, AJR, dan Science Direct, Physica Medica and the Korean Journal of Radiology. A total of 11 articles were categorized as either synopsis articles or performance evaluation clinical studies. The results show that the use of IR algorithms reduces objective image noise, and at least preserves spatial resolution and low contrast detectability, even when dose is reduced. In conclusion, there is a general that ASIR algorithms can faithfully reduce radiation dose but must notice about ASIR level to improve image quality in CT in comparison with the FBP algorithm.

Abstract

Background: Multislice CT Scan (MSCT) brain examination in pediatric cases should pay attention to the lowest possible dose but still provide optimal anatomical information. Pediatric has a higher risk of developing cancer compared to adults who receive the same dose. The purpose of this study is to obtain the optimal value of the use of the Adaptive Statistical Iterative Reconstruction (ASIR)-V technique with variations in tube current strength and Iterative Reconstruction value which is implemented in pediatric patients under the age of 5 (five) years. Methods: This research was experimental with brain image samples of pediatric patients at the Radiology Installation of RSUD dr. Moewardi Surakarta. The variations of the tube currents selected were 80, 100, and 165 mA with a combination of AR20, AR40, AR60, and AR80 variations. Anatomical information processed descriptively sourced from the assessment of 3 (three) radiologists who were experienced in assessing MSCT images. Meanwhile, the effect of tube current variation on radiation dose was tested using linear regression. Results: The results showed differences in anatomical information between the combinations of 165 mA-AR60 and 165 mA-AR80 "very clear", 165 mA-AR20 "clear", 80 mA-AR20 "fairly clear" and 100 mA-AR80 "less clear". There was an effect of strong variation of tube current on radiation dose with a regression coefficient value of 0.690. The estimated effective doses of the three tube current values were still below the national Dose Reference Level (DRL). Conclusions: It was concluded that there were differences in anatomical information on the MSCT brain pediatric examination with variations in tube current and ASiR-V, there was an effect of variations in mA on radiation dose and mA values and the optimal value of the combination of techniques studied is 80 mA and 20% Iterative Reconstruction.
