|---|---|---|
| Image quality of conventional grid versus SimGrid using 5 point Likert scale | Relative image quality will be assessed using a 5 point Likert scale ranging from -2 to +2 with -2 indicating better image quality with conventional grid and +2 indicating better image quality with SimGrid. | baseline |
| Image quality of non-grid versus SimGrid using 5 point Likert scale | Relative image quality will be assessed using a 5 point Likert scale ranging from -2 to +2 with -2 indicating better image quality with non-grid and +2 indicating better image quality with SimGrid. | baseline |
