Photon-counting CT allows better visualization of temporal bone structures in comparison with current generation multi-detector CT

ConclusionPCCT provides a better depiction of temporal bone anatomy than MDCT, at a lower radiation dose.Graphical AbstractCritical relevance statementPCCT provides a better depiction of temporal bone anatomy than MDCT, at a lower radiation dose.Key pointsPCCT allows high-resolution imaging of temporal bone structures.Compared to MDCT, the visibility of normal temporal bone structures is scored better with PCCT.PCCT allows to obtain high-quality CT images of the temporal bones at lower radiation doses than MDCT.
