“…Despite not being optimized for photon-counting data, iterative MAR has shown promise in PCCT for various types of implants, irrespective of the selected acquisition protocol [ 65 66 ]. However, with the current software, MAR postprocessing cannot be combined with a spatial frequency higher than 7.3 line pairs per centimeter at 50% of the modulation transfer function (Br56 kernel; Siemens Healthineers) [ 14 ], which is far from the image sharpness expected from UHR imaging.…”
