Improving the Accuracy of the Effective Atomic Number (EAN) and Relative Electron Density (RED) with Stoichiometric Calibration on PCD-CT Images

The photon counting detector (PCD) in computed tomography (CT) can count the number of incoming photons in order to obtain energy information for photons corresponding to user-defined thresholds. Research on the extraction of effective atomic number (EAN) and relative electron density (RED) using du...
