| Core Tip |
Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) represents a paradigm shift in oncologic imaging, offering superior spatial resolution, reduced radiation dose, and enhanced material decomposition compared to conventional CT. This study highlights PCCT’s potential in tumor detection, characterization, and therapy response assessment, underscoring its role in advancing precision oncology. By leveraging energy-resolved photon detection, PCCT enhances lesion conspicuity and quantification, paving the way for improved diagnostic accuracy and personalized treatment strategies. |
