Fig. 1From: Photon-counting detector CT and energy-integrating detector CT for trabecular bone microstructure analysis of cubic specimens from human radiusScatterplots of bone structure parameters. *For each specimen, solid line for the fitted linear model, dashed line for the 95% confidence intervals of the fitted linear model. Multislice computed tomography using energy-integrating detectors (EID-CT) is coloured red, while multislice computed tomography using photon-counting detectors (PCD-CT) is coloured black. For the PCD-CT, the combination of a field of view of 51 mm and a matrix of 1024 × 1024 was chosen and for the EID-CT the mAs setting with the same CTDIvol as the PCD-CT was used.
