Optimizing coronary computed tomography angiography image quality with motion-compensated reconstruction: a prospective electrocardiogram-triggered mode with second-generation dual-layer spectral detector computed tomography
The integration of the MCR algorithm with prospective ECG-triggered mode performed using second-generation DLCT demonstrated good image quality and maintained reasonably low radiation exposure in CCTA. Notably, the MCR algorithm significantly improved motion artifact correction, particularly in patients with elevated or irregular HRs, highlighting its strong clinical utility in real-world scenarios where HR variability is common.
