Propagation-based phase-contrast breast computed tomography: a visual grading assessment of the performance of photon-counting and flat-panel X-ray detectors
Abstract:Rationale and objectives: Breast cancer represents the leading cause of death from cancer in women worldwide. Early detection of breast tumours improves the prognosis and survival rate. Propagation-based phase-contrast computed tomography (PB-CT) is a technique that uses refraction and absorption of the X-ray to produce images for clinical applications. This study compared the performance of photon‐counting and flat panel X-ray detectors in PB‐CT breast imaging using synchrotron radiation. Materials and method… Show more
