Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation Exposure From Pediatric CT Scans and Subsequent Cancer Risk in the Netherlands
Johanna M. Meulepas,Cécile M. Ronckers,Anne M. J. B. Smets,Rutger A.J. Nievelstein,Patrycja Gradowska,Choonsik Lee,Andreas Jahnen,Marcel van Straten,Marie Claire Y. de Wit,Bernard A. Zonnenberg,Willemijn M. Klein,J.H.M. Merks,Otto Visser,Flora E. van Leeuwen,Michael Hauptmann +14 more
TL;DR: Evidence is found that CT-related radiation exposure increases brain tumor risk following exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation from CT scans in childhood, and incidence of brain tumors was higher in the cohort of children with CT scans, requiring cautious interpretation of the findings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring cystic fibrosis lung disease by computed tomography. Radiation risk in perspective.
Wieying Kuo,Pierluigi Ciet,Harm A.W.M. Tiddens,Wei Zhang,R. Paul Guillerman,Marcel van Straten +5 more
TL;DR: The risk related to routine usage of CT in clinical care is small and a life-limiting disease, such as CF, lowers the risk of radiation-induced cancer, so the use of CT should always be justified and the radiation dose should be kept as low as reasonably achievable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cystic fibrosis: Are volumetric ultra-low-dose expiratory CT scans sufficient for monitoring related lung disease?
Martine Loeve,Maarten H. Lequin,Marleen de Bruijne,Ieneke J. C. Hartmann,Krista Gerbrands,Marcel van Straten,Wim C. J. Hop,Harm A.W.M. Tiddens +7 more
TL;DR: CT scores from end-expiratory and end-inspiratory CT alone may be sufficient for monitoring CF-related lung disease, suggesting that radiation dose reduction by up to 75% may be necessary for a single investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Heart Rate Frequency and Variability on Radiation Exposure, Image Quality, and Diagnostic Performance in Dual-Source Spiral CT Coronary Angiography
Annick C. Weustink,L. A. Neefjes,Stamatis Kyrzopoulos,Marcel van Straten,Rick Neoh Eu,Willem B. Meijboom,Carlos Van Mieghem,Ermanno Capuano,Marcel L. Dijkshoorn,Filippo Cademartiri,Eric Boersma,Pim J. de Feyter,Gabriel P. Krestin,Nico R. Mollet +13 more
TL;DR: DS spiral CT coronary angiography performed with adaptive ECG pulsing results in preserved diagnostic image quality and performance independent of HRF or HRV at the cost of limited dose reduction in arrhythmic patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Image Quality and Radiation Exposure Using Different Low-Dose Scan Protocols in Dual-Source CT Coronary Angiography: Randomized Study
Lisan A. Neefjes,Anoeshka S. Dharampal,Alexia Rossi,Koen Nieman,Annick C. Weustink,Marcel L. Dijkshoorn,Gert-Jan R. ten Kate,Admir Dedic,Stella L. Papadopoulou,Marcel van Straten,Filippo Cademartiri,Gabriel P. Krestin,Pim J. de Feyter,Nico R. Mollet +13 more
TL;DR: A high-pitch spiral CT coronary angiographic protocol should be applied in patients with regular and low (<55 beats per minute) heart rates; a sequential protocol is preferred in all others.
