First Clinical Photon-counting Detector CT System: Technical Evaluation

Kishore Rajendran et al.

Summary: This study assessed the technical performance of a clinical photon-counting detector (PCD) CT system, including noise, spatial resolution, and iodine CT number accuracy. The results showed that the PCD CT system has improved technical performance compared to current CT systems, with better temporal resolution and image quality in cardiac imaging.

Quantum Iterative Reconstruction for Low-Dose Ultra-High-Resolution Photon-Counting Detector CT of the Lung

Thomas Sartoretti et al.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize image quality and determine the optimal strength levels of a novel iterative reconstruction algorithm for low-dose, ultra-high-resolution photon-counting detector CT of the lung. The results showed that QIR-3 provided the optimal iterative reconstruction level for low-dose, ultra-high-resolution PCD-CT of the lungs.

Potential of Photon-Counting Detector CT for Radiation Dose Reduction for the Assessment of Interstitial Lung Disease in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis

Lisa Jungblut et al.

Summary: Photon-counting detector computed tomography (PCD-CT) has the potential to reduce radiation dose by 66% compared to conventional energy-integrated detector CT (EID-CT) without compromising image quality and diagnostic performance in the assessment of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients.

Low-Dose High-Resolution Photon-Counting CT of the Lung: Radiation Dose and Image Quality in the Clinical Routine

Matthias Michael Woeltjen et al.

Summary: This study compares the image quality and radiation dose of low-dose high-resolution (LD-HR) lung CT scans acquired with a photon counting CT (PCCT) scanner and a conventional CT scanner with an energy-integrating detector system (EID-CT). The results show that PCCT scans provide better image quality and lower noise, while using significantly less radiation dose.

Feasibility of lung imaging with a large field-of-view spectral photon-counting CT system

Salim Si-Mohamed et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the large field-of-view SPCCT prototype has excellent technical capabilities and high image quality for high-resolution lung CT. Standard-dose SPCCT images had superior visibility and sharpness compared to conventional CT images, while low-dose SPCCT images showed similar clarity and visibility.

Computed tomography with a full FOV photon-counting detector in a clinical setting, the first experience

Jiri Ferda et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the feasibility and effectiveness of using PC-CT system in body imaging of clinical patients. It shows that PC-CT provides lower radiation dose in ultra-high resolution mode, better imaging quality compared to energy integrating CT, and higher signal-to-noise ratio in both lung and abdominal imaging.
