PURPOSE: While dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) images provide clinically useful information than single-energy CT (SECT), SECT remains the most widely used CT system globally, and only a few institutions can use DECT. This study aimed to estab...
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) ...
BACKGROUND: Deep learning (DL) CT denoising models have the potential to improve image quality for lower radiation dose exams. These models are generally trained with large quantities of adult patient image data. However, CT, and increasingly DL deno...
PURPOSE: Computed tomography (CT) scans are a significant source of medically induced radiation exposure. Novel deep learning-based denoising (DLD) algorithms have been shown to enable diagnostic image quality at lower radiation doses than iterative ...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the impact of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) on acute infarct depiction compared with hybrid iterative reconstruction (Hybrid IR).
OBJECTIVES: In interventional bronchial artery embolization (BAE), periprocedural cone beam CT (CBCT) improves guiding and localization. However, a trade-off exists between 6-second runs (high radiation dose and motion artifacts, but low noise) and 3...

In recent years, the growing awareness of public health has brought attention to low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) scans. However, the CT image generated in this way contains a lot of noise or artifacts, which make increasing researchers to investi...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the performance of Precise IQ Engine (PIQE) and Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) algorithms on image-quality according to the dose level in a cardiac computed tomography (CT) protocol.
