Clinical value of a new generation adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR-V) in the diagnosis of pulmonary nodule in low-dose chest CT

Abstract

This is a clinical study to evaluate the clinical value of pulmonary nodules using ASIR-V algorithm in the same patients in the low-dose chest CT scans. It suggests that ASIR-V provides similar image quality and detection rate for pulmonary nodules at much reduced radiation dose.
