Evaluation of ultra‐low‐dose <scp>CT</scp> with tin filter for craniosynostosis

Ultra-low-dose CT with a tin filter allows for the diagnosis of craniosynostosis with a 92% dose reduction compared with the standard CT protocol. Despite lower image quality with the ultra-low-dose protocol when compared to standard CT, all 27 scans were adequate for craniosynostosis diagnosis. Additionally, it allowed for the assessment of other relevant findings not appreciable with skull radiography, highlighting its advantages as the new clinical standard for craniosynostosis assessment.

Abstract

Ultra-low-dose CT with a tin filter allows for the diagnosis of craniosynostosis with a 92% dose reduction compared with the standard CT protocol. Despite lower image quality with the ultra-low-dose protocol when compared to standard CT, all 27 scans were adequate for craniosynostosis diagnosis. Additionally, it allowed for the assessment of other relevant findings not appreciable with skull radiography, highlighting its advantages as the new clinical standard for craniosynostosis assessment.
