[question] Weird waterpaint-like image quality

[question] Weird waterpaint-like image quality

Hi everyone, long time reader, first time poster.
I'm viewing a lot of CT scans for a college project and I came across some weird kind of scans that look like they went through some instagram filter.
An example:

I have seen this multiple times already, from the same type of scanner (Philips IQon - Spectral CT) and I don't understand if this is intentional (and why would a radiologist choose this kind of scan) or some by product of using a spectral CT (and again, what is it good for?).

Would really appreciate your wisdom and experience :)

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
