Core Tip Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) is an emerging technology that offers superior dose efficiency and image quality compared to conventional energy-integrating detector computed tomography. In this abdominal imaging study, PCCT achieved approximately 50% reduction in radiation dose while significantly improving both objective and subjective image quality. These findings highlight the potential of PCCT to enable low-dose, high-quality clinical protocols, representing a significant advancement in diagnostic imaging.
