Evaluation of external beam hardening filters on image quality of computed tomography and single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography

This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of external metal filters on the image quality of computed tomography (CT) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT images. Images of Jaszack phantom filled with water and containing iodine contrast filled syringes were acquired using...
