Photon-Counting Computed Tomography (PC-CT) of the spine: impact on diagnostic confidence and radiation dose

Computed tomography (CT) is employed to evaluate surgical outcome after spinal interventions. Here, we investigate the potential of multispectral photon-counting computed tomography (PC-CT) on image quality, diagnostic confidence, and radiation dose compared to an energy-integrating CT (EID-CT).
