Role of photon-counting computed tomography in pediatric cardiovascular imaging

Figure 3 A 16-year-old male with a suspected coronary anomaly. a: Cardiac multienergy photon-counting detectors (PCDs) scan reconstructions at 40 keV; b: Cardiac multienergy PCDs scan reconstructions at 50 keV; c: Cardiac multienergy PCDs scan reconstructions at 100 keV; d: Cardiac multienergy PCDs scan reconstructions at color-coded iodine overlay; e: Cardiac multienergy PCDs scan reconstructions at iodine overlay; f: Cardiac multienergy PCDs scan reconstructions at virtual non-contrast; g: No coronary anomaly was detected but a short segment myocardial bridge (arrow) of the distal left anterior descending artery at the level of the apex was detected as shown in image.
