Image quality of abdominal photon-counting CT with reduced contrast media dose: Evaluation of reduced contrast media protocols during the COVID19 pandemic supply shortage

Image quality of abdominal photon-counting CT with reduced contrast media dose: Evaluation of reduced contrast media protocols during the COVID19 pandemic supply shortage

Rationale and objectives: Aim of this study was to assess the impact of contrast media dose (CMD) reduction on diagnostic quality of photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) and energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT). Methods: CT scans of the abdominal region with differing CMD acquired in portal venou...
