概要 We investigated the effect of electrocardiographic (ECG) mA-modulation of ECG-gated scans of computed tomography (CTA) on radiation dose and image noise at high heart rates (HR) above 100 bpm between helical pitches (HP) 0.16 and 0.24. ECG mA-modulation range during ECG-gated CTA is 50-100 mA, the phase setting is 40-60% and the scan range is 90 mm for clinical data during HR for 90, 120 and 150 bpm. Radiation dose and image noise in Housfield units are measured for CT equipment during HR for 90, 120 and 150 bpm between HP 0.16 and 0.24. ECG mA-modulation, dose reduction ratio for HR 90, 120 and 150 bpm are 19.1, 13.4 and 8.7% at HP 0.16 and 17.1, 13.3 and 7.7% at HP 0.24, respectively. No significant differences were observed in image noise between both HP. Dose reductions of 8-24% are achieved with ECG mA-modulation during ECG-gated CCTA scan, which is beneficial even in high HR more than 100 bpm.
