Radiation dose and image quality in pediatric chest CT: effects of iterative reconstruction in normal weight and overweight children.

Background: New CT reconstruction techniques may help reduce the burden of ionizing radiation.Objective: To quantify radiation dose reduction when performing pediatric chest CT using a low-dose protocol and 50% adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR) compared with age/gender-matched che...
