Effect of radiation dose and iterative reconstruction on lung lesion conspicuity at MDCT: Does one size fit all? Marcos Paulo Ferreira Botelho, Rishi Agrawal, Fernanda Dias Gonzalez-Guindalini, Eric M. Hart, Suresh K. Patel, Hüseyin Gürkan Töre, Vahid Yaghmai European Journal of Radiology Volume 82, Issue 11, Pages e726-e733 (November 2013) DOI: /j.ejrad Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions

Figs. 2–7 Basic models of lung disease: 12-mm ground glass opacity (Fig. 2a and b), 5-mm bronchial polyp (Fig. 3a and b), 5-mm solid nodule (Fig. 4a and b), 5-mm ground glass nodule (Fig. 5a and b), emphysema (Fig. 6a and b), and tree-in-bud opacity (Fig. 7a and b). Each figure represents a lesion acquired with the minimum radiation parameters to satisfy a score of 3 (subtle lesion and not artifact) for conspicuity using FBP (a) and IR (b).
