Ultra-low-dose computed tomography for attenuation correction of cadmium-zinc-telluride single photon emission computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging

ConclusionsAttenuation maps for MPI obtained from ultra-low radiation dose CT scans are interchangeable with attenuation maps from standard-dose CT while offering a substantial reduction in radiation dose exposure.
