Image quality assessment of pediatric chest and abdomen CT by deep learning reconstruction.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Efforts to reduce the radiation dose have continued steadily, with new reconstruction techniques. Recently, image denoising algorithms using artificial neural networks, termed deep learning reconstruction (DLR), have been applied to CT im...

Detection of urinary tract calculi on CT images reconstructed with deep learning algorithms.

Abdominal radiology (New York)
BACKGROUND: Deep learning Computed Tomography (CT) reconstruction (DLR) algorithms promise to improve image quality but the impact on clinical diagnostic performance remains to be demonstrated. We aimed to compare DLR to standard iterative reconstruc...

Deep Learning-based Reconstruction for Lower-Dose Pediatric CT: Technical Principles, Image Characteristics, and Clinical Implementations.

Radiographics : a review publication of the Radiological Society of North America, Inc
Optimizing the CT acquisition parameters to obtain diagnostic image quality at the lowest possible radiation dose is crucial in the radiosensitive pediatric population. The image quality of low-dose CT can be severely degraded by increased image nois...
