K-edge imaging for cOLOR Spectral Photon-Counting Computed Tomography in lung diseases IMAGING
Computed tomography (CT) is the mainstay of lung imaging because of its higher spatial resolution, convenience, availability and faster time of acquisition in comparison with other imaging methods such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nuclear imaging. However, CT’s lack of specificity and absolute quantitative capabilities limits the comprehensive guidance of therapeutic strategies based on imaging assessment of oncologic, inflammatory, and fibrotic pathophysiology processes. Spectral photon-counting CT is an emerging CT technology that not only capitalises on all CT’s advantages but also offers a cutting-edge method of imaging, called Color K-edge imaging. This method allows the…
