Multicentre analysis of incidental findings on low-resolution CT attenuation correction images : an extended study (2015)
Journal Article

Objective: To review new incidental findings detected
on low-resolution CT attenuation correction (CTAC)
images acquired during single-photon emission CT-CT
myocardial perfusion imaging as an extension to our
initial study.
Methods: CTAC images... Read More about Multicentre analysis of incidental findings on low-resolution CT attenuation correction images : an extended study.

What is the minimum amount of simulated breast movement required for visual detection of blurring : An exploratory investigation? (2015)
Journal Article
Ma, W., Aspin, R., Hogg, P., Kelly, J., & Millington, S. (2015). What is the minimum amount of simulated breast movement required for visual detection of blurring : An exploratory investigation?. British Journal of Radiology, 88(1052), https://doi.org/10.1259/bjr.20150126

Background: Image blurring in mammography can cause significant image degradation and interpretational problems. A potential source is due to paddle movement during image formation. Paddle movement has been shown to be as much as 1.5mm. No study has...

Mammography screening in Nigeria – a critical comparison to other countries (2015)
Journal Article
Lawal, O., Murphy, F., Hogg, P., & Nightingale, J. (2015). Mammography screening in Nigeria – a critical comparison to other countries. Radiography, 21(4), 348-351. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radi.2015.03.015

Breast cancer is a leading cause of death among women, and according to the World Health Organisation (WHO) there will be a significant increase in the incidence of breast cancer in developing countries such as Nigeria by 2030. However, mammography s... Read More about Mammography screening in Nigeria – a critical comparison to other countries.

Lesion detection performance : comparative analysis of low-dose CT data of the chest on two hybrid imaging systems (2015)
Journal Article

PURPOSE:

Incidental findings, discovered in low-dose CT images obtained during hybrid imaging, are an increasing phenomenon with advancing CT technology. Understanding their diagnostic value along with technical limitations is therefore important...

A phantom-based JAFROC observer study of two CT reconstruction methods : the search for optimisation of lesion detection and effective dose (2015)
Journal Article

Purpose: To investigate the dose saving potential of iterative reconstruction (IR) in a computed tomography (CT) examination of the thorax.
Materials and Methods: An anthropomorphic chest phantom containing various configurations of simulated lesi... Read More about A phantom-based JAFROC observer study of two CT reconstruction methods : the search for optimisation of lesion detection and effective dose.
