Study Summary
This project aims to develop and evaluate a next-generation photon-counting CT prototype, and assess whether next-generation photon-counting CT--which enables reduced radiation dose, high spatial resolution, and spectral imaging--would facilitate improved diagnostic performance for abdominal, cardiothoracic, musculoskeletal, and neuroimaging.
Primary Outcome
In this clinical study evaluating a photon-counting computed tomography (CT) scanner, the Primary Outcome Measures include image quality assessed by signal-to-noise ratio, contrast-to-noise ratio, and resolution via edge response function, as well as diagnostic accuracy determined by radiologist interpretation compared to gold-standard diagnostic methods when available from previous scans. For each body region, image data will be subjectively evaluated for image quality using a Likert scale ass
