From: Myocardial CT perfusion imaging for the detection of obstructive coronary artery disease: multisegment reconstruction does not improve diagnostic performance

Fig. 5

Boxplots showing estimated radiation dose in mSv of stress computed tomography perfusion in patients with multisegment acquisition, which allowed both MSR and HSR (93 patients), and in patients with HSR only (41 patients). Boundaries of boxes represent the lower and upper quartiles and horizontal lines in boxes the medians. Outliers are depicted as individual open circles. In the HSR-only group, MSR was not possible in 9 patients despite multisegment acquisition of two segments. Mean radiation dose of patients with both MSR and HSR was higher than that of patients with HSR (p < 0.001). HSR Halfscan reconstruction, MSR Multisegment reconstruction
