Computed Tomography (CT)

Computed tomography (CT) systems use a series of X-ray images to create an image volume dataset with slices that can be manipulated on any plane using advanced visualization software. The section includes computed tomography scanners, CT contrast agents, CT angiography (CTA and CCTA), CT perfusion, spectral CT (dual-source CT), and iterative reconstruction dose reduction software.

Representative axial image from a test set imaging study. From top left to bottom right: CT (A), NAC-PET (B), original AC-PET (C), AI-generated AC-PET (D). The blue arrow indicates one lesion that was observed in both images, and the red arrow indicates a lesion that was missed (i.e., not de-tected by expert nuclear medicine physicians) in AI image. NAC = Non-Attenuation Corrected. AC = Attenuation-Corrected
