1 Computer-Tomography I: Principles, History, Technology Prof. Dr. U. Oelfke DKFZ Heidelberg Department of Medical Physics (E040) Im Neuenheimer Feld Heidelberg, Germany History of CT 1895 W. C. Röntgen: Discovery of x-rays 1917 J.H. Radon: Radon transform, reconstruction algorithm 1963 A.M. Cormack: CT reconstruction algorithm 1972 G.N. Hounsfield und J. Ambrose: first clinical CT clinical CT scanners (head scanners) 1975 First clinical whole body CT 1979 Nobelprize for Hounsfield and Cormack 1989 Spiral CT 1998 Multi-slice CT 2000 > clinical CT installations Seite 1 1
2 Contents Motivation for CT Basic Physics Hounsfield Units Technical aspects: CT scanner CT reconstruction Spiral- and multi-slice CT Image quality Clinical applications Motivation Limitations of 2d x-ray imaging: Loss of depth information, superposition of all structures (projection on one plane) Very limited contrast for different soft tissue contrast Seite 2 2
3 Problems with planar x-ray imaging 2D image: superposition of all structures in depth No differentiation of soft tissues CT vs. planar X-ray imaging X-ray image: 2D-projection Good contrast for bone-air interfaces CT = Reconstruction of anatomical images from x-ray images obtained from different directions Seite 3 3
4 Principle of CT: Basic physics Absorption of x-rays in matter Intensity Measured: absorption coefficient I ( d ) I 0 exp ( ( E, Z ) ds ) d 0 (, Z ) E Seite 4 4
