Performance evaluation of a deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithm in "double low" chest CTA in children: a feasibility study.

BACKGROUND: Chest CT angiography (CTA) is a convenient clinical examination for children with an increasing need to reduce both radiation and contrast medium doses. Iterative Reconstruction algorithms are often used to reduce image noise but encounter limitations under low radiation dose and conventional 100 kVp tube voltage may not provide adequate enhancement under low contrast dose.
