Comparison of image quality, diagnostic accuracy and radiation
... A good image quality guarantees accurate diagnosis. Our study showed that the two scanning modes of DSCT can obtain satisfying image quality. The image quality in the retrospective group was better than that in the flash group, however, there was no statistically significant difference. In the flash ...
