Description

The two ZIP files contain the images of a CT phantom of abdomen. DualEnergy.zip contains files of acquisition at 80 kVp and 140 kVp. The second file HelicalAxialIterative.zip contains acquisition done in axial, helicoidal (aka spiral) and iterative reconstruction (Saphire) modes.  Axial images have AbdSeq in the name, Helicoidal have Abdomen and B in the filter name, Iterative have Abdomen and I in the filter name. You can compare Exposure in mAs for each acquisition modality, how it diminishes from sequential/helicoidal/axial through helicoidal/spiral to iterative. This scanner if programmed with iterative acquisition can still  reduce exposure from helicoidal scan. The acquisition was done on Siemens-Healthineers Somatom Confidence CT scanner.
