Histogram-derived modified thresholds for coronary artery calcium scoring with lower tube voltage
Abstract We aimed to determine the proper modified thresholds for detecting and weighting CAC scores at 100 kV through histogram matching in comparison with 120 kV as a standard reference. From the training set (680 participants), modified thresholds at 100 kV were obtained through histogram matchin...
