CT radiation dose reduction with tin filter for localisation/characterisation level image quality in PET-CT: a phantom study

CT radiation dose reduction with tin filter for localisation/characterisation level image quality in PET-CT: a phantom study

Abstract Background The tin filter has allowed radiation dose reduction in some standalone diagnostic computed tomography (CT) applications. Yet, ‘low-dose’ CT scans are commonly used in positron emission tomography (PET)-CT for lesion localisation/characterisation (L/C), with higher noise tolerated...
