Abstract Evaluation of image quality (IQ) in Computed Tomography (CT) is important to
ensure that diagnostic questions are correctly answered, whilst keeping radiation dose to the …

Chest radiography is the most commonly performed diagnostic X-ray examination. The
radiation dose to the patient for this examination is relatively low but because of its frequent use, …

Purpose: Metal prostheses cause artifacts in computed tomography (CT) images. The purpose
of this work was to design an efficient and accurate metal segmentation in raw data to …

This study aimed at assessment of efficacy of selective in-plane shielding in adults by quantitative
evaluation of the achieved dose reduction and image quality. Commercially available …

The objectives in this study were to design and test a fully automated method for classification
of microcalcification clusters into malignant and benign types, and to compare the …

Our objective in this study was to investigate the usefulness of an anti‐scatter grid in digital
mammography using a contrast detail phantom. The mammography system we investigated …

For the evaluation of the average glandular dose (AGD) in digital mammography (DM) and
digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) phantoms simulating standard model breasts are used. …

Purpose To design a 3D printed anthropomorphic lung vessel phantom for CT image quality
assessment and to evaluate the phantom image and dose characteristics. Methods An in-…

Equalizing image noise has been shown to be an important step in automatic detection of
microcalcifications in digital mammograms. In this study, an accurate adaptive approach for …

Purpose To compare pain, projected breast area, radiation dose and image quality between
flexible (FP) and rigid (RP) breast compression paddles. Methods The study was conducted …
