Abstract

Compared with the conventional dual-source CT,the third-generation dual-source CT has many technical advantages in terms of tube function,iterative reconstruction,and dual-energy scanning mode. Many studies have explored the "double low" applications of this technique,and the future research will be focused on disease diagnosis,removal of artifacts,organ perfusion,and substance separation.
