Multi-energy computed tomography breast imaging with Monte Carlo simulations: Contrast-to-noise-based image weighting
Context: Photon-counting detectors and breast computed tomography imaging have been an active area of research. With these detectors, photons are assigned an equal weight and weighting schemes can be enabled. More weight can be assigned to lower energies, resulting in an increase in the contrast-to-...
