Fast Ultra Low Dose CT Interpretation

Fast Ultra Low Dose CT Interpretation

An ultra-low-dose CT(ULDCT) image viewer prototype was developed in an iterative fashion that aims to reduce average interpretation times of ULDCT images. Ultimately, by reducing reading time of ULDCTs, we aim to enable general replacement of X-ray by ULDCT imaging, which is theorized to have large population-level health outcome impact in terms of early detection of lung cancer, coronary calcification, and aortic aneurysm, among others.
