What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Purpose and objective: This project aims to evaluate photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) quantitative accuracy using COPDGene subjects. The goal is to establish acquisition protocols for PCCT scans with proper post-processing (e.g., reconstruction parameters and harmonization techniques) that enable reproducible measurements of emphysema metrics (e.g., Perc15, LAA-950, HU accuracy) and airways (Pi10, WA%) in the lungs.
