Intraindividual comparison of diagnostic performance in patients with hepatic metastasis of full-dose standard and half-dose iterative reconstructions with dual-source abdominal computed tomography.

摘要

By applying SAFIRE2, the radiation dose could be reduced by up to 50% compared with the standard-of-care abdominal CT protocol without increasing image noise and without deteriorating diagnostic performance for the detection of hepatic metastasis.
