Role of photon-counting computed tomography in pediatric cardiovascular imaging

Figure 2 An example of multienergy chest computed tomography with intravenous contrast acquired using the ultra-high-resolution mode with a photon-counting detector computed tomography in a 12-year-old female with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. a: A previous energy-integrating detector computed tomography (CT) 0.75 mm image displays only one of three small; b: Peripheral arteriovenous malformations (arrowheads) show the photon-counting detector CT 0.8 mm image at the same level; c: In addition to high-resolution images, simultaneous multienergy acquisition on photon-counting detector CT displays the heterogeneous perfusion of the lung parenchyma and permits calculation of lung blood perfusion volume.
