亨氏單位

維基百科，自由的百科全書

亨氏單位（英語：Hounsfield unit，縮寫：HU），為亨氏量表（Hounsfield scale）阻射率（英語：Radiodensity）的數量尺度單位，命名自X射線電腦斷層掃描的發明人高弗雷·豪斯費爾德（Godfrey Newbold Hounsfield）。亨氏單位常用於X射線電腦斷層掃描，因此又稱為CT值（CT number）。

定義[編輯]

亨氏單位為其所測量之介質的線性衰減系數的線性映射，其定義將蒸餾水與空氣在標準溫度與標準壓力下的阻射率（英語：Radiodensity）分別設為0 HU和-1,000 HU。因此，在線性衰減系數介於平均值間的體素中，其亨氏單位為：[1]

其中與分別為水與空氣的線性衰減系數。[2]

由於空氣的線性衰減系數趨近於0，一個HU的變化相當於水線性衰減系數0.1%的變化。[2]

原理[編輯]

由於X射線電腦斷層掃描的功能在於將生物（主要是陸上生物，如人類）的體內結構成像化，因此採納上述標準作為所有介質的參照依據。[2]

人體內各介質的亨氏單位值[編輯]

亨氏單位僅適用於常見的雙能電腦斷層掃描（dual-energy CT scan），而不適用於錐狀射束電腦斷層掃描（cone beam CT scan）。[3]

膽結石 膽固醇石 +30至+100[23]
色素性膽結石 +90至+120[23]
異物（英語：Foreign body）[24] 一般窗戶玻璃 +500
鋁、瀝青、車窗玻璃、玻璃瓶與其他石類 +2,100至+2,300

銅 +14,000
銀 +17,000
鋼 +20,000
金、鋼與黃銅 +30,000（可測量之上限）
耳垢 <0

亨氏單位常用於辨識腫瘤，以腎上腺腺瘤（英語：Adrenal adenoma）為例，當該腫瘤的阻射率（英語：Radiodensity）小於10 HU，則其脂肪成分偏高，代表該腫瘤有較大概率為良性腫瘤[25]。
