A method of correcting for linear drift in computed tomography brain scans

Linear drift of X-ray attenuation coefficients must be corrected if quantitative comparisons are to be made between computed tomography (CT) brain scans of the same individual performed at different times. Such a correction is accomplished by comparing the low (cerebrospinal fluid) end of the attenu...

description Linear drift of X-ray attenuation coefficients must be corrected if quantitative comparisons are to be made between computed tomography (CT) brain scans of the same individual performed at different times. Such a correction is accomplished by comparing the low (cerebrospinal fluid) end of the attenuation coefficient frequency histograms using a percentile--percentile plot. A "drift correction" permits serial quantitative assessments of the progression or regression of white matter hypodensity, such as occurs in drug induced leukoencephalopathy.
