Fig. 6From: Value of virtual monochromatic spectral image of dual-layer spectral detector CT with noise reduction algorithm for image quality improvement in obese simulated body phantomCNR values of polychromatic image and VMI in small and large phantoms. VMI had more gradual CNR decrease than conventional polychromatic images in all examined DRIs ([a] DRI 16, [b] DRI 19, [c] DRI 22, [d] DRI 25).
