다양한 관전압에 따른 CR과 DR 모의병변 흉부 영상의 ROC 평가 ROC Analysis of Simulated Chest Lesions for Computed Radiography and Digital Radiography at Various Tube Voltages원문보기
본 연구에서는 다양한 관전압 사용에 따른 CR, DR 모의병변 흉부 영상을 이용하여 병변 검출 정도를 ROC 평가하였다. 모의 제작된 미세 폐 병변, 초기 침윤성 병변, 작은 혹 모양의 병변은 아크릴 판을 이용하여 인체형 흉부 팬텀과 포개놓고 영상을 획득하였으며 CR과 DR에서 각각 3개의 관전압(70 kV, 90 kV, 120 kV) 조건을 사용하였다. 총 18,000개의 관찰결과를 ROC평가 하였다. CR에서는 모든 병변에 대하여 70 kV로 획득한 영상이 높은 $A_z$값을 나타내었으나 DR에서는 두 개 병변에서만 70 kV로 획득한 영상이 높은 $A_z$값을 나타내었다. 본 연구내용을 바탕으로 검출기 종류와 관심 병변에 따른 최적의 관전압 조건을 사용하기 위하여 실제 환자에서의 임상 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Current digital radiographic systems are rapidly growing in clinical applications. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR) at different tube voltages in the detection of simulated chest lesions. Patterns of simulated interstitial lung disease, incipient infiltration, and nodules were superimposed over an anthropomorphic chest phantom. A simulated chest phantom radiograph was obtained with CR and DR at different tube voltages (70 kV, 90 kV, and 120 kV). A total of 18,000 observations were analyzed using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The detection of all lesions showed higher $A_z$ values at 70 kV than 120 kV with CR. For the DR, mean $A_z$ values at 70 kV were higher than other tube voltages not all lesions but for micro-nodule interstitial lung disease, linear interstitial lung disease, and incipient infiltration. Based on these results, a clinical study should be performed to judge the use of suitable tube voltage according to the type of detector system and lesions.

제안 방법
The aim of this phantom study was to compare the two digital detectors in the detection of patterns of simulated interstitial lung disease, nodules, and incipient infiltration at various tube voltages using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.
All observers were familiar with using PACS. Training sessions were held before the scoring sessions to allow the observers to become familiar with the chest phantom image and the simulated lesions. To avoid learning bias, the interval between each session was held at least a week.
대상 데이터
All radiographs were analyzed by five imaging experts who specialize in radiological imaging science. All observers were familiar with using PACS.
DR images were obtained (FDXD-1417, DRTECH, Seoul, Korea) by using a 35.6×42.7 cm solid-state detector, a 2,560×3,072 matrix, and 0.139 mm pixel size.
데이터처리
The mean Az values were calculated along with their standard deviation. A statistical program (SPSS version 12, Chicago, IL) was used to calculate the significance of the differences between the mean Az values by using a two-way factorial analysis of variance method.
A total of 18,000 observations (10 acrylic plates×12 areas×5 observers×3 different tube voltage×2 detector systems×5 test lesions) were analyzed using a ROC analysis.
후속연구
There was no statistically significant difference between CR and DR imaging with the same tube voltage in the detection of simulated lesions except for nodules. Based on these results, a clinical study should be performed to judge the use of suitable tube voltage according to the type of detector system and lesions. Further studies in clinical situation may be needed to generalize these results for other applications.
