Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) has been widely used as a noninvasive modality for accurate assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) in clinical settings. However, the following limitations of CCTA remain issues of interest: motion, stair-step, and...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: CT angiography (CTA) is a commonly used clinical examination to detect abnormal arteries and diagnose pulmonary sequestration (PS). Reducing the radiation dose, contrast medium dosage, and injection pressure in CTA, especial...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the radiation and contrast dose reduction potential of combining 70 kV with deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for slender patients with body-mass-index (BMI) ≤25 kg/m2.

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is widely used in dentistry, surgery, radiotherapy and other medical fields. However, repeated CBCT scans expose patients to additional radiation doses, increasing the risk of secondary malignant tumors. Low-dose ...
Radiologists are witnessing astonishing innovation and advancement of CT technologies and their clinical applications. This review highlights how photon-counting CT (PCCT), upright CT, and artificial intelligence (AI) may impact cardiothoracic CT app...
PURPOSE: Modern intensity-modulated radiotherapy, aiming to deliver an accurate dose to the planning target volume while protecting the surrounding organs at risk, is regarded as the indispensable treatment for cancer in the clinic. An accurate and e...
