Quantitative analysis of blooming artifact caused by calcification based on X-ray energy difference using computed tomography
Abstract Blooming artifacts caused by calcifications appearing on computed tomography (CT) images lead to an underestimation of the coronary artery lumen size, and higher X-ray energy levels are suggested to reduce the blooming artifacts with subjective visual assessment. This study aimed to evaluat...
