Tube Current Modulation

Tube Current Modulation is a dose optimization technique in computed tomography imaging that dynamically adjusts the X-ray tube current during data acquisition based on the attenuation characteristics of the patient in different projection angles, thereby reducing overall radiation exposure while maintaining image quality.
