Technical Basics and Clinical Benefits of Photon-Counting CT

Novel photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) has the potential to address the limitations of previous CT systems, such as insufficient spatial resolution, limited accuracy in detecting small low-contrast structures, or missing routine availability of spectral information. In this review article, we ex...

Sumario:Novel photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) has the potential to address the limitations of previous CT systems, such as insufficient spatial resolution, limited accuracy in detecting small low-contrast structures, or missing routine availability of spectral information. In this review article, we explain the basic principles and potential clinical benefits of PCD-CT, with a focus on recent literature that has grown rapidly since the commercial introduction of a clinically approved PCD-CT.
