RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of the deep learning reconstruction (DLR) technique on the image quality of CT angiography (CTA) derived from 80-kVp cerebral CT perfusion (CTP) data and compare it with hybrid-iterative reconstruction (HIR).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-three patients underwent CTP at 80 kVp were prospectively enrolled. CTP data were reconstructed with HIR and DLR. Four image datasets were reconstructed: HIRpeak and DLRpeak were single arterial phase images derived from the time point showing the peak value, HIRtMIP and HIRtAve were time-resolved maximum intensity projection image and time-resolved average image derived from three time points with the greatest enhancement of HIR. The mean CT values, standard deviation, signal-to-noise ratio, and contrast-to-noise ratio of the internal carotid artery and basilar artery were compared among the four image dataset. Image quality was performed using a five-point rating scale. Arterial stenosis was evaluated.
RESULTS: DLRpeak had the highest CT value and contrast-to-noise ratio in the internal carotid artery and basilar artery (all p < 0.001). DLRpeak showed the best subjective image quality and had the highest score (4.93 ± 0.4) compared to the other three HIR CTA images (all p < 0.001). The degree of vascular stenosis was consistent among the four evaluated sequences (HIRtAve, HIRpeak, and HIRtMIP DLRpeak).
CONCLUSION: For CTA derived from 80-kVp cerebral CTP data, images reconstructed with deep learning showed better image quality and improved intracranial artery visualization than those processed with HIR and other currently used techniques.
