Objective We explored the role of maximum intensity projection (MIP) based on high frame rate contrast-enhanced ultrasound (H-CEUS) for the differentiation of breast tumors. Methods MIP imaging was performed in patients with breast tumors who underwent H-CEUS examinations. The microvasculature morphology of breast tumors was assessed. The receiver ...

Respiratory-induced tumor motion is a major challenge in lung cancer (LC) radiotherapy. Four-dimensional computed tomography (4D-CT) using a maximum intensity projection (MIP) dataset is a commonly used and time-efficient method to generate internal target volume (ITV). This study compared ITV delineation using MIP or tumor delineation on all phase...

Appendicitis is a common childhood condition requiring surgical intervention and delayed diagnosis can have serious consequences. This report describes the case of a child who presented with an acute abdomen and intestinal obstruction. Multidetector (MD) CT demonstrated a left-sided caecum and an inflamed appendix with a faecolith. Maximum intensit...

Introduction Lung cancer is the most common cancer overall, and the foremost cause of cancer-related mortality. Almost all lung cancers evolve from pulmonary nodules. As multidetector CT (MDCT) scanners are now widely available, there is an increased rate of detection of pulmonary nodules. It is of utmost importance to evaluate pulmonary nodules to...

Introduction: Portal vein (PV) is the principal blood vessel transporting blood from the alimentary tract and spleen to the liver. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of PV anatomical variations in our population using multidetector CT with maximum intensity projection (MIP) technique at a tertiary care hospital. Methods: This cros...

Introduction Pulmonary nodules are frequently encountered during chest imaging, and its evaluation is usually done by chest radiograph and computed tomography (CT) scan of chest. High resolution of multidetector CT (MDCT) has improved the nodule detection. Post processing techniques such as maximum intensity projection (MIP) can further improve the...

While CTA is an established clinical gold standard for imaging large cerebral arteries and veins, an important challenge that currently remains for CTA is its limited performance in imaging small perforating arteries with diameters below 0.5 mm. The purpose of this work was to theoretically and experimentally study the potential benefits of using p...

Deep learning methods have been shown to improve breast cancer diagnostic and prognostic decisions based on selected slices of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI). However, incorporation of volumetric and temporal components into DCE-MRIs has not been well studied. We propose maximum intensity projection (MIP) images of s...

The objective of our study was to evaluate lung nodule detection rates on standard and microdose chest CT with two different computer-aided detection systems (SyngoCT-CAD, VA 20, Siemens Healthcare [CAD1]; Lung CAD, IntelliSpace Portal DX Server, Philips Healthcare [CAD2]) as well as maximum-intensity-projection (MIP) images. We also assessed the i...

In low-resolution phase contrast magnetic resonance angiography, the maximum intensity projected channel images will be blurred with consequent loss of vascular details. The channel images are enhanced using a stabilized deblurring filter, applied to each channel prior to combining the individual channel images. The stabilized deblurring is obtaine...
