Key Words	Low-dose computer tomography coronary angiography; Iterative reconstruction
Core Tip	A consecutive series of 200 patients referred to our institution to undergo computer tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) were sequentially assigned to filtered back projection (FBP) or iterative reconstruction (IR). The percent assessable coronary segment was similar between groups. Radiation dose was significantly lower in the IR group. Image noise and signal density levels did not differ between FBP and IR groups. The IR group was associated to significant effective dose reductions, irrespective of the acquisition mode. Our findings suggest that application of IR in CTCA preserves image interpretability despite a significant reduction in radiation dose.
