  2. 6. Low kilovoltage computed tomography to reduce contrast medium dose in patients at risk of acute kidney injury

    Author : Fredrik Holmquist; Lund Diagnostisk radiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Computed tomography; Image quality; Radiation dosimetry; contrast medium induced nephropathy; Iterative reconstruction algorithms;

    Abstract : Background: Patients with reduced renal function may be at risk of contrast medium-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) following intravenous iodine contrast medium (CM) enhanced computed tomography (CT). Reducing the CM dose may reduce this risk. READ MORE

  4. 7. Intravenous contrast media optimization at computed tomography

    Author : Anders Svensson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The administration of intravenous contrast media (IV CM) is essential for detecting lesions at most computed tomography (CT) examinations. The overall aim of this thesis is to investigate different aspects of IV CM administration that may affect the quality of the CT examination. READ MORE
