Adaptive iterative dose reduction 3D (AIDR 3D) vs. filtered back projection: radiation dose reduction capabilities of wide volume and helical scanning techniques on area-detector CT in a chest phantom study.

CONCLUSION: In term of SD of lung parenchyma and nodule identification, AIDR 3D can achieve more radiation dose reduction than FBP and there is no significant different between WVS and 64HS. PMID: 26339037 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
