Low Radiation Dose CT Techniques for Liver Disease
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
To compare 2 different image creation/processing techniques during a standard CT scan in order to "see" problems in the liver and learn which method provides better image quality. The techniques use new artificial intelligence software to decrease image noise, which helps the radiologist to evaluate.
