Table 2 Anatomical image criteria assessed for each phase including axial, coronal and sagittal multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) planes and graded on a 5-point Likert type scale by allocating a score of 1 to 5

From: Image quality and pathology assessment in CT Urography: when is the low-dose series sufficient?

Image Criteria

 C1: Visually sharp reproduction of the renal parenchyma

 C2: Visually sharp reproduction of the renal pelvis and calyxes

 C3: Visually sharp reproduction of the proximal part of the ureters

 C4: Visually sharp reproduction of the renal arteries

Grading Scale scores

 1: Criterion was fulfilled

 2: Criterion was probably fulfilled

 3: Indecisive

 4: Criterion was probably not fulfilled

 5: Criterion was not fulfilled
