Abstract

AIM: To compare images using reduced CM, low-kVp scanning and DLR reconstruction with conventional images (no CM reduction, normal tube voltage, reconstructed with HBIR. To compare images using reduced contrast media (CM), low kilovoltage peak (kVp) scanning and deep-learning reconstruction (DLR) with conventional image quality (no CM reduction, normal tube voltage, reconstructed with hybrid-type iterative reconstruction method [HBIR protocol]).
