This study provides an objective comparison of cranial computed tomography (CT) imaging quality and radiation dose between photon counting detectors (PCCTs) energy-integrated (EIDs). We retrospectively analyzed 158 CT scans from 76 patients, employing both detector types on the same individuals to ensure a consistent comparison. Our analysis focused Computed Tomography Dose Index Dose-Length Product together with contrast-to-noise ratio signal-to-noise for brain gray white matter. utilized...
Background: Advances in computed tomography (CT) technology, particularly photon-counting CT (PCCT), are reshaping the possibilities for medical imaging. PCCT spectral imaging enables high-resolution visualization of tissues with material-specific accuracy. This study aims to establish a foundational approach vivo intracranial blood using PCCT, focusing on non-enhanced techniques and capabilities. Methods: We employed detector within framework differentiate between venous arterial blood. Our...
Recent advancements in computed tomography (CT), notably photon-counting CT (PCCT), are revolutionizing the medical imaging field. PCCT's spectral can better visualize tissues based on their material properties. This research aims to establish a fundamental approach for vivo visualization of intracranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using PCCT. PCCT was integrated distinguish CSF within space with imaging. In this study, we analyzed monoenergetic +67 keV reconstructions alongside virtual...
