Computed tomography (CT) is a valuable assessment method for muscle pathologies such
as sarcopenia, cachexia, and myosteatosis. However, several key underappreciated scan …

With the advent of multidetector computed tomography (CT), CT angiography (CTA) has
gained widespread popularity for noninvasive imaging of the arterial vasculature. Peripheral …

Background We investigated the impact of varying contrast medium (CM) densities and x-ray
tube potentials on contrast enhancement (CE), image quality and radiation dose in thoracic …

CT has advantages over MRI including rapid acquisition, and high spatial resolution for
detailed anatomical information on the head and neck region. Therefore, CT is the first …

Many technological advances have entered the clinical routine of Computed Tomography
(CT) imaging. The new CT scanners have specific solutions in gantry design to bear the …

Non-invasive cardiovascular imaging owns a pivotal role in the preoperative assessment of
patient candidates for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), providing a wide range …

Introduction The purpose of this study was to compare a dual energy CT (DECT) protocol
with 50% reduction of iodinated contrast to a single energy CT (SECT) protocol using …

We aimed to investigate the effect of a patient's body mass index (BMI) on radiation dose
and image quality in prospectively ECG-triggered coronary CT angiography (CCTA) …

Due to the radiosensitivity of paediatric patients to X-ray, it is necessary to survey the
paediatric DRLs using size-specific dose estimates (SSDE). In the present study, we …

Report VII of the Board on Radiation Effects Research (BRER), in which the linear no-
threshold hypothesis was applied, estimates the lifetime carcinogenesis risk from computed …
