Purpose The aim of this study was to demonstrate that a low helical pitch causes increased photon starvation artifacts at ultra-low-dose CT. Methods A cylindrical water phantom with a diameter of 30 cm was scanned on two different generation CT scann

The purpose of this study was to quantify the dose reduction resulting from the use of lead aprons for pediatric chest CT as a function of the distance between the apron and the bottom of the scan range.Semianthropomorphic phantoms of the head, abdom

Context Hypoparathyroidism is characterized by low serum calcium, increased serum phosphorus, and inappropriately low or decreased serum parathyroid hormone, which may be associated with soft tissue calcification in the basal ganglia of the brain. Ob

Protocol review is important to decrease the risk of patient injury and increase the consistency of CT image quality. A large volume of CT protocols makes manual review labor‐intensive, error‐prone, and costly. To address these challenges, we hav

Purpose: To determine the precision and accuracy of CTDI{sub 100} measurements made using commercially available optically stimulated luminescent (OSL) dosimeters (Landaur, Inc.) as beam width, tube potential, and attenuating material were varied. Me
