Window settings for the study of calcified carotid plaques with multidetector CT angiography
L Saba, G Mallarin - American journal of neuroradiology, 2009 - Am Soc Neuroradiology
CT angiography (CTA) shows high sensitivity in detecting calcified plaques, but sometimes a
bias in the exact quantification of stenosis degree occurs, mainly caused by the high linear …
