Optimizing iterative reconstruction for quantification of calcium hydroxyapatite with photon counting flat-detector computed tomography: a cardiac phantom study

Purpose: Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring with computed tomography (CT) has been proposed as a screening tool for coronary artery disease, but concerns remain regarding the radiation dose of CT CAC scoring. Photon counting detectors and iterative reconstruction (IR) are promising approaches for...
