Ideen (IDs)

• Tantalum-Filter on tube for switching contrast of tantalum contrast agent
• Region-of-Interest MLIR
• 2D stereo anti scatter grid (smaller lamellae for z-direction)
• Stereo CT where detector is located asymmetrical along z
• Twin-beam CT: Use x-deflection for different spectra at central detector rows
• Use stereo for motion estimation
• Stereo Tube at beginning/end of helix

Submitted

• Use survey scan for detection of patient parts outside of SFOV
• Stereo-Tube with inplane shift of focal-spots
• x-ray tube with oscillating anode speed
• DART for EFOV
• Stereo CT with central collimator for full-scan acquisitions (intersection point at rotation axis)
• Use helical scout scan as start image for axial MLIR / detect motion (based on bone segmentation)
• Different slice thicknesses in SFOV and EFOV
• Use thresholded start image for MLIR
