Abstract
> .05). Conclusion The detectability of low-contrast liver lesions was similar on CT scans reconstructed with low-, medium-, and high-strength DLIR and ASIR-V 40 in both patient and phantom studies. Lesion-to-background contrast-to-noise ratios were higher for DLIR medium- and high-strength reconstructions compared with ASIR-V 40. © RSNA, 2024
