摘要
We evaluated the feasibility of angiographic computed tomography (ACT) for diagnostic imaging in a patient with degenerative lumbar spine disease. ACT provides a volume data set out of a rotational acquisition with a c-arm-mounted flat-panel detector. Using this technique, radiographic myelography and myelographic computed tomography can be performed in a single session at the same imaging system. The quality of the reconstructed ACT slice images is comparable to those acquired by postmyelographic computed tomography.
