High-pitch spiral CT: effect on image quality and radiation dose in pediatric chest CT
|
We evaluated a new, subsecond high-pitch scan mode (HPM), which obviates the need of sedation and to hold the breath. Read more

Detection of coronary artery stenoses by low-dose, prospectively ECG-triggered, high-pitch spiral coronary CT angiography
|
We sought to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of a new prospectively electrocardiogram (ECG)-triggered high-pitch scan mode for coronary CTA, which allows an effective dose of less than 1 mSv. Read more
