Multidetector CT (MDCT) has revolutionized non-invasive imaging of the central airways. Compared to single-detector helical CT scans, MDCT results in higher spatial resolution, faster speed, greater anatomic coverage, and higher quality multiplanar reformation and 3-D reconstruction images. This article reviews recent advances in central airway imaging with MDCT. A special emphasis is placed upon the role of advanced reconstruction methods and functional imaging.
多排螺旋CT(MDCT)彻底改变了中央气道的无创成像。与单排螺旋CT扫描相比,MDCT具有更高的空间分辨率、更快的扫描速度、更大的解剖覆盖范围以及更高质量的多平面重建和三维重建图像。本文回顾了MDCT在中央气道成像方面的最新进展。特别强调了先进重建方法和功能成像的作用。
