Topogram-based tube current modulation of head computed tomography for optimizing image quality while protecting the eye lens with shielding.
Conclusion Image artifacts induced by the bismuth-antimony shield at a fixed tube current for lenticular radioprotection were significantly reduced by topogram-based TCM, which increased the SNR of the anthropomorphic nasal bones and periorbital tissues.
