Optimization of CT calcium scoring doses on the General Electric Discovery single-photon emission computed tomography/CT D670, 8-slice scanner
Manufacturer-recommended exposure mA was typically resulting in 3–5 times greater patient doses for calcium score scans compared with other dedicated CT scanners at Nottingham University Hospitals. Image noise was used as a measure of image quality in phantom and patient data. The noise was quantifi...
