Clinical Trial Summary

The new image reconstruction algorithm (Precise Image, Philips Healthcare) has a strong potential to maintain sufficient image quality suitable for diagnosis with ultra-low dose (ULD) chest and abdomen-pelvis scans. The hypothesis is that the images obtained with the Precise Image algorithm for ULD acquisitions are of sufficient and suitable quality for the diagnosis of certain lung, abdominal-pelvic and bone lesions.


Description:

Recently a new image reconstruction algorithm based on Deep-learning has been developed (Precise Image, Philips Healthcare). Initial studies on phantoms have shown that this algorithm improves image quality and reduces patient dose compared to the iDose4 iterative reconstruction algorithm. Feasibility studies have validated the image quality for low-dose levels (LD). However, this algorithm has a strong potential to maintain sufficient image quality suitable for diagnosis with ultra-low dose (ULD) chest and abdomen-pelvis scans. The hypothesis is that the images obtained with the Precise Image algorithm for ULD acquisitions are of sufficient and suitable quality for the diagnosis of certain lung, abdominal-pelvic and bone lesions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the concordance of the global quality of thoraco-abdominopelvic images of a ULD scan acquisition compared to a standard dose CT acquisition and measure the global agreement of the global quality of the images with a 4-point Likert scale. The ULD acquisition will allow a significant reduction in the X-ray dose delivered to patients compared to a standard dose conventional scanner. This reduction is estimated at 70%.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Concordance of the global quality of thoraco-abdomino-pelvic images from an Ultra-Low-Dose scanner acquisition compared to a standard dose scanner acquisition A 4-point Likert scale will be used to evaluate the overall image quality to see whether it is good enough to visualize the structures of interest and possible lesions.
Overall image quality is rated as follows:
Completely interpretable without noise, smoothing, and/or artifact,
Completely interpretable with low artifacts and/or low level of noise or/and smoothing,
Interpretable with moderate noise and/or smoothing and moderate artifacts,
Uninterpretable
Day 0
Secondary Distribution of image quality with the standard dose scanner Distribution of image quality for each of the two examinations of interest (ULD scanner and standard dose scanner) and to estimate the frequency of good quality images (level 1-2) for each of the two examinations.
- Fully interpretable without noise, smoothing and/or artifact,
- Fully interpretable with low artifacts and/or low noise and/or smoothing,
- Interpretable despite moderate noise and/or smoothing and moderate artifacts,
- Not interpretable
Day 0
Secondary Frequency of good quality images with the standard dose scanner Distribution of image quality for each of the two examinations of interest (ULD scanner and standard dose scanner) and to estimate the frequency of good quality images (level 1-2) for each of the two examinations. Grouping of the variable into 2 classes for the estimation of the frequency of good quality (1-2) images:- 1-2 vs. 3-4 Day 0
