OBJECTIVE: To assess the image quality of chest CT reconstructed with image-based iterative reconstruction (SafeCT; MedicVision®, Tirat Carmel, Israel), adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR; GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI) and model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR; GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI) techniques at CT dose index volume (CTDIvol) <1 mGy.
METHODS: In an institutional review board-approved study, 25 patients gave written informed consent for acquisition of three reduced dose (0.25-, 0.4- and 0.8-mGy) chest CT after standard of care CT (8 mGy) on a 64-channel multidetector CT (MDCT) and reconstructed with SafeCT, ASIR and MBIR. Two board-certified thoracic radiologists evaluated images from the lowest to the highest dose of the reduced dose CT series and subsequently for standard of care CT.
RESULTS: Out of the 182 detected lesions, the missed lesions were 35 at 0.25, 24 at 0.4 and 9 at 0.8 mGy with SafeCT, ASIR and MBIR, respectively. The most missed lesions were non-calcified lung nodules (NCLNs) 25/112 (<5 mm) at 0.25, 18/112 (<5 mm) at 0.4 and 3/112 (<4 mm) at 0.8 mGy. There were 78%, 84% and 97% lung nodules detected at 0.25, 0.4 and 0.8 mGy, respectively regardless of iterative reconstruction techniques (IRTs), Most mediastinum structures were not sufficiently seen at 0.25-0.8 mGy.
CONCLUSION: NCLNs can be missed in chest CT at CTDIvol of <1 mGy (0.25, 0.4 and 0.8 mGy) regardless of IRTs. The most lung nodules (97%) were detected at CTDIvol of 0.8 mGy. The most mediastinum structures were not sufficiently seen at 0.25-0.8 mGy. Advances in knowledge: NCLNs can be missed regardless of IRTs in chest CT at CTDIvol of <1 mGy. The performance of ASIR, SafeCT and MBIR was similar for lung nodule detection at 0.25, 0.4 and 0.8 mGy.
