Objective: To evaluate radiation dose and image quality of a double-low CCTA protocol reconstructed utilizing high-strength deep learning image reconstructions (DLIR-H) compared to standard adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASiR-V) protocol in non-obese patients.
Materials And Methods: From June to October 2022, consecutive patients, undergoing clinically indicated CCTA, with BMI < 30 kg/m were prospectively included and randomly assigned into three groups: group A (100 kVp, ASiR-V 50%, iodine delivery rate [IDR] = 1.8 g/s), group B (80 kVp, DLIR-H, IDR = 1.
Article Synopsis
- Ocular involvement of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) is rare, primarily consisting of metastatic cases; primary orbital NENs are even more uncommon and present unique diagnostic and treatment challenges.
- A systematic review of literature from 1966 to September 2023 identified 63 records on orbital NENs, with 11 focusing specifically on primary types, revealing that symptoms often included proptosis or exophthalmos.
- Effective management of primary orbital NENs requires a multidisciplinary approach and early referral to specialized centers to improve diagnosis, treatment, and overall patient outcomes.
