Problems solved by technology

However, on CT images, the extremely high density image of bone tissue conceals the changes in local blood perfusion before and after contrast agent injection, and it is impossible to obtain accurate and effective physiological data such as bone ischemia and osteonecrosis using existing CTP technology and software. , pathological state and change evaluation and diagnostic information, making bone CTP a bottleneck in the clinical application of CTP, so far there has been no successful clinical application, especially the report of diagnosis of osteonecrosis

Abstract

The invention provides a subtraction computer body-layer perfusion functional imaging method. The method comprises the following steps: performing single-single or multi-layer dynamic continuous reinforced spiral CT scan on local tissue in order to get image data of each layer of tissue before and after contrast agent blood perfusion; transmitting images to an image workstation; using image subtraction software to create a novel digital image sequence of a group of contrast agent blood perfusion images of protruding tissue; and utilizing CT perfusion imaging (CTP) software of the image workstation to process and analyze the data of the novel digital image sequence in order to produce a group of color level images and values of parameters reflecting tissue blood perfusion states after subtraction. The method has the advantages of economical efficiency, practicability, no need for radioisotope, high image space and time resolution, short scanning and imaging time, few influencing factors, excellent repeatability, wide popularization, low examination cost and the like, and solves the problem that the prior art cannot effectively realize CTP evaluation and non-invasive examination of bone tissue or other high-density tissue and lesions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a computer imaging method, in particular to a tissue subtraction computer tomographic perfusion function imaging method. Background technique [0002] Osteonecrosis, such as femoral head necrosis, is a common and frequently-occurring disease. The high incidence rate and the young age of the affected population have brought great harm and challenges to the whole society and human health. Moreover, its prognosis is poor and the harm is great. remains a thorny problem in medicine. Osteonecrosis focuses on early diagnosis, discovery and timely and effective intervention and treatment. However, there is still a lack of an effective means to accurately diagnose early or even ultra-early osteonecrosis. Osteonecrosis due to various reasons always leads to local bone blood supply disorder, which leads to further changes of bone cells such as ischemia, necrosis, bone trabecular fracture, and bone surface collapse. In theory, CT perfus...
