Comparison In Quantitative Coronary Calcified Plaque Burden Between Filter Back Projection And Iterative Reconstruction Algorism Using Scan With Various Exposure Dosage

Introduction: Studies show that the value of coronary artery plaque burden decreases when assessed with CT iterative reconstruction algorithm and varies between various scanner models. We aimed to estimate the difference in quantitative coronary calcified plaque burden between filter back projection (FBP) and iterative reconstruction (IR) images using a latest scanner of 256-detector CT.
