Low tube voltage CT for improved detection of pancreatic cancer: detection threshold for small, simulated lesions

Low tube voltage CT for improved detection of pancreatic cancer: detection threshold for small, simulated lesions

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is associated with dismal prognosis. The detection of small pancreatic tumors which are still resectable is still a challenging problem.</p> <p>The aim of this study was to investigate the...
