Abstract
Purpose As breast cancer patients continue to increase every year, cases of BSGI are on the rise with a heavier reliance on it. However, BSGI protocol in hospitals was not studied enough despite it was covered by hospital's condition and recommendation of manufacturers. The objective of the study was an examination of methods to be applicable to BSGI protocols, putting the self-development phantom to use in quality assessment of the images. Materials and Methods Dilon 6800 (Dilon Technologies Inc, Newport News, USA) was used in the study and five different sizes of sphere were distinctively produced in the phantom. The study used
유방암 환자가 매년 증가함에 따라 BSGI 검사에 대한 의존도가 높아지고 검사 건수가 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 하지만 국내에서 BSGI 검사는 각 기관의 상황 및 업체권고에 따라 검사 프로토콜을 적용하고 있으며 관련 연구가 미비한 실정이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 영상의 질을 평가할 수 있는 팬텀을 자체적으로 제작하여 검사 프로토콜에 대해 고찰하고자 하였다. Dilon 6800 BSGI 장비를 이용하여 팬텀 내 구의 크기는 5단계로 구분하여 제작하여 실험하였다. 방사성동위원소는
