Assessment of Optimal Pitch Ratio in 4D Computed Tomography Images for Reducing Radiation Dose with Sustained Image Quality

Four-dimensional computed tomography (4D CT) images are used to manage the respiratory- induced moving tumour problem. A pitch ratio is the main factor for radiation dose and image quality of 4D CT. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the optimal pitch ratio for 4D CT images in mov...
