Differentiation of Adrenal Adenomas from Non-Adenomatous Lesions: Diagnostic Value of Unenhanced Spectral CT

open access: yesTomography
Background: Differentiating adrenal adenomas from non-adenomatous lesions remains a critical challenge in the management of adrenal incidentalomas. Conventional unenhanced CT relies on attenuation thresholds of 10 HU and 20 HU, which present trade-offs ...

Understanding Photon-Counting CT: Physics, Detector Technology, and Image Reconstructions

open access: yesSensors
Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) represents a detector-level transformation in CT imaging. Unlike conventional energy-integrating detectors, photon-counting detectors directly convert individual X-ray interactions into electrical pulses and ...

COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT OF VIRTUAL MONOENERGETIC IMAGING FOR CORONARY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY

open access: yes, 2022
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a technique that allows for a non-invasive evaluation of anatomy, structure and function of the heart, as well and of coronary arterial patency. It consists of a contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the thorax, which is synchronized with the patient's electrocardiographic activity that permits to ...
