Photon-counting CT: what can we see?
Ronald Booij, Rotterdam / Netherlands
1. To name and define the technical differences between an energy-integrating detector (EID) CT and a photon-counting detector (PCD) CT.
2. To describe and reflect on how PCD-CT provide more imaging and visualisation capabilities for musculoskeletal imaging than EID-CT.
3. To identify and describe prospects of PCD-CT in musculoskeletal imaging.
