| Core Tip |
We assessed the performance of abdominal computed tomography (CT) acquired at sub-milli-Sievert radiation dose to the standard of care CT. A total of 66 subjects were scanned on three different multi-detector CT scanners at sub-milli-Sievert radiation dose [or CT dose index volume (CTDIvol) of 1.3 mGy]. Images were reconstructed with vendor-specific and vendor-neutral iterative reconstruction techniques (IRTs). We compared the clinical diagnostic performance of vendor specific and vendor neutral IRTs at sub-milli-Sievert radiation dose to the standard of care CT. We found that regardless of the IRTs and multi-detector CT vendors, CTDIvol of 1.3 mGy or sub-mill-sievert radiation dose did not provide sufficient clinical diagnostic performance for abdominal CT. |
