Iterative reconstruction (IR) techniques are susceptible to contrast-dependent spatial resolution, limiting overall radiation dose reduction potential. Deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) may mitigate this limitation. The purpose of our study...
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) on the accuracy of iodine quantification and image quality of dual-energy CT (DECT) compared to that of other reconstruction algorithms in a phantom experiment and an ...
BACKGROUND: Two deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) techniques from two different computed tomography (CT) vendors have recently been introduced into clinical practice.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of the new artificial intelligence deep-learning reconstruction (AI-DLR) algorithm on image quality and radiation dose compared with iterative reconstruction algorithm in lumbar spine comput...
Deep neural networks have shown great improvements in low-dose computed tomography (CT) denoising. Early algorithms were primarily optimized to obtain an accurate image with low distortion between the denoised image and reference full-dose image at t...
BACKGROUND: Dual-energy CT with virtual noncalcium (VNCa) images allows the evaluation of focal intramedullary bone marrow involvement in patients with multiple myeloma. However, current commercial VNCa techniques suffer from excessive image noise an...

BACKGROUND: The demand for homogeneous and higher vascular contrast enhancement is critical to provide an appropriate interpretation of abnormal vascular findings in coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA).
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To investigate the image quality and accurate bone mineral density (BMD) on quantitative CT (QCT) for osteoporosis screening by deep-learning image reconstruction (DLIR) based on a multi-phantom and patient study.
Potential radioactive hazards in full-dose positron emission tomography (PET) imaging remain a concern, whereas the quality of low-dose images is never desirable for clinical use. So it is of great interest to translate low-dose PET images into full-...
