Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate propriety of using SID 180cm at Chest PA examination and to find effect of geometrical cause to the image. XGEO-GC80, INNOVISION-SH, CXDI-40EG detector and a chest phantom designed self-production was used for this study. Images were acquired at SID 180cm with changing the factor OID as 0, 75 and 83mm and were analyzed by Centricity Radiography RA1000 PACS system. Statistical program was used the SPSS (Version 22.0, SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA), p-value(under 0.05) was considered to be statistically significant. In OID 0 mm was enlarged about 2.7~3.5 mm than the actual degree of the HS, BS of phantom in all equipments. Compared with the calculated magnification has been expanded 1.6~2.8% when viewed. The OID 75 mm with OID 83 mm was extended from the CS and BS 6~8 mm range. Compared to the calculated values, the measured values are expanded from 6.1 to 7.9%. CS and BS according to the OID change showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) among each group, the post-analysis only OID 0 mm group appeared as an independent group, 75 mm and 83 mm are separated in the same group It was. But had no statistically significant difference could change depending on the OID (p>0.05), post-mortem analysis showed, both in the same group. Heart sizes appears larger than actual size 6~8 mm at chest PA examination which is enlarged 6.1~7.9% more than the actual theoretical value. We can find magnification of the image because of the increase of the OID due to technical limitations between cover of standing detector and the image plate. so we suggest to have occurred between them when considering the need to adjust the equipment installed by the SID to match the characteristics of the equipment.

본 연구는 DR system에서 Chest PA 검사 시 일반적으로 적용되는 SID(180 cm)가 실제 심장크기 및 심흉비를 묘사하는데 적합한 거리인지 고찰해보고, 장비가 지닌 기하학적 원인이 영상에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 자체 제작한 Chest phantom과 XGEO-GC80, INNOVISION-SH, UD150B-40 장비에 CXDI-40EG detector를 조합한 X선 발생장치를 이용하였다. 실험방법은 SID를 180 cm로 고정 후 OID를 0, 75, 83 mm로 변화시키며 영상을 획득하였다. 영상은 Centricity Radiography RA1000 PACS system에서 측정하였다. 통계프로그램은 SPSS(Version 22.0, SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA)를 사용하였고, p-value는 0.05 이하를 통계적으로 유의한 것으로 평가하였다. OID 0 mm에서 세 장비 모두 팬텀의 실제 CS, BS 보다 약 2.7~3.5 mm 정도 확대되었고, 계산된 확대율과 비교해 보았을 때 1.6~2.8% 확대되었다. OID 75 mm와 OID 83 mm에서는 6~8 mm 범위에서 CS와 BS가 확대되었다. 계산된 값과 비교했을 때 측정된 값은 6.1~7.9% 확대되었다. OID 변화에 따른 CS와 BS는 각 그룹간에 통계적으로 유의한 차이(p<0.05)를 보였으며, 사후분석에서는 OID 0 mm 그룹만 독립적인 그룹으로 나타났고, 75 mm와 83 mm는 동일한 그룹으로 분리되었다. 하지만 OID 변화에 따라서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었으며(p >0.05), 사후 분석에서도 모두 같은 그룹으로 나타났다. DR system에서 Chest PA 검사 시 일반적으로 이용되고 있는 SID에서 검사하는 경우 심장의 크기는 실제 크기보다 6~8 mm크게 나타나며 이는 실제 이론적인 값보다 6.1~7.9% 확대되어 나타났다.
