Article Synopsis
- The study compared the effects of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) and hybrid iterative reconstruction (IR) on liver imaging quality and radiation dose in 66 patients.
- DLR yielded significantly lower mean hounsfield units (HU) for liver parenchyma (105.9 HU) compared to hybrid IR (118.5 HU), but offered a 56% increase in signal-to-noise ratio.
- Additionally, DLR resulted in a 36% reduction in radiation dose, indicating it can effectively enhance liver imaging quality while using less iodine.
