Dose reduction for CT coronary calcium scoring with a calcium-aware image reconstruction technique: a phantom study

OBJECTIVE: To assess the dose reduction potential of a calcium-aware reconstruction technique, which aims at tube voltage-independent computed tomography (CT) numbers for calcium. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A cardiothoracic phantom, mimicking three different patient sizes, was scanned with two calcium i...
