From: Stent appearance in a novel silicon-based photon-counting CT prototype: ex vivo phantom study in head-to-head comparison with conventional energy-integrating CT

Fig. 5

Three-dimensional volume-rendered (3DVR) images, axial and coronal slices at 150-mm and 50-mm field-of-view (FOV) for silicon-based photon-counting CT (Si-PCCT) (a) and energy-integrating detector CT (EIDCT) (b). Qualitative stent appearance was found to be insufficient (score 1) for 12.5% of the EIDCT images (both FOVs) due to impaired visibility of stent struts and impaired stent delineation, as represented in the 3DVR images
