i have got a bad quality CT, and i wonder anyone have similar experience ?

I have noticed that, sometime if the patient is very Thin, dont have much fat, when i used standard protocol. Sometime the resultant image appears very “grey" and the image contrast become very low. Anyone have similar experience ? And why is that ? I have checked the exposure, the kv should be enough, and the mA is a little bit low, like 120kv 180ma for abdomen. Should i lower the kv to obtain more mA? But the machine is on automatic mA modulation

What confused me is that, this situation dont appears everytime, it just occur occasionally for thin patient

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/
