초록

두부 CT 검사에서 눈의 수정체는 높은 방사선 감수성으로 보호되어야 할 장기 중에 하나이다. 두부 CT 검사에서 눈의 피폭선량감소 목적으로 사용되는 비스무스 차폐체는 현저한 선량 감소 효과가 있지만 화질저하의 문제점이 있다. 본 연구는 인체팬텀을 이용한 두부 CT 검사에서 피폭 선량을 줄이기 위해 사용되는 관전류변조기법인 new organ based-tube current modulation, longitudinal-TCM, angular-TCM과 차폐기법인 비스무스, 납 안경을 사용하여 눈의 선량과 화질의 변화 정도를 평가하였다. 연구결과, new OB-TCM에서 눈의 선량은 25.88% 감소되었으며 비스무스를 사용한 검사와 비교하여 CT number, 노이즈, SNR의 변화가 작은 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 new OB-TCM을 임상의 두부 CT 검사에 적용할 경우, 눈의 피폭선량을 감소시키면서 영상의 화질 저하를 방지할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The eye of human is a radiation sensitive organ and this organ should be shielded from radiation exposure during brain CT procedures. In the brain CT procedures, bismuth protector using to reduce the radiation exposure dose for eye. But protecting the bismuth always accompanies problem of the image quality reduction including artifact. This study aim is the eye radiation exposure dose and image quality evaluation of the new tube current modulation such as new organ based-tube current modulation, longitudinal-TCM, angular-TCM between shielding scan technique using bismuth and lead glasses. As a result, radiation dose of eye is reduced 25.88% in new OB TCM technique then reference scan technique and SNR new OB TCM is 6.05 higher than bismuth shielding scan technique and lower than reference scan technique. In clinical brain CT, new OB TCM technique will contribute to reduction of radiation dose for eye without decrease of image quality.
