Conclusion: The ESD was significantly reduced during the low-dose CT examination with bismuth shielding, but it<br />

notably increased the image noise. X-CARE reduced the ESD minimally compared to the CT low-dose scans, <strong>and</strong> it<br />

also increased the image noise. The most efficient way to achieve an optimal thoracic CT examination is to use a<br />

st<strong>and</strong>ard low-dose protocol.<br />

Introduction: Auditory center is an important structure of brain, the perfusion of auditory center is related to auditory<br />

function. The purpose is to study the changes of cerebral blood flow (CBF) of auditory cortex under stimulation of<br />

different frequency of sound using arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion weighted imaging.<br />

Methods: 13 volunteers were examined using the GE Discovery 750 3.0Tesla MR system with 32 channels head coil.<br />

The whole brains were scanned with 3D FSPGR. Non-stimulation ASL, under low, middle <strong>and</strong> high frequency sound<br />

to bilateral ears were acquired respectively. All the data were transferred to adw4.6 work station. CBF values of auditory<br />

cortex were measured. Paired t-test was performed with SPSS17.0 statistical software.<br />

Results: The CBF value of right temporal lobe was 73.31±10.99ml/min/100g with non-stimulation. The left was<br />

73.10±10.72 ml/min/100g. There was no significant difference (p>0.05). The CBF values of left temporal lobe<br />

were74.33 ±11.76, 76.03±10.14 <strong>and</strong> 73.17±11.85 ml/min/100g corresponding to stimulating right ear with low, middle<br />

<strong>and</strong> high frequency sound. The CBF of right temporal lobe were70.46±11.52, 70.92±11.03 <strong>and</strong> 67.71±10.60<br />

ml/min/100g corresponding to stimulating right ear with low, middle <strong>and</strong> high frequency sound. The CBF of left temporal<br />

with stimulation to right ear were higher than those of right (p
