  1. High, medium-1, medium-2, and low-density plaque were coded as 1–4, respectively, four CT systems (CT-A to CT-D) as 1–4; velocities from 0 to 60 mm/s coded as 0–6; dose level 40%, 80% and full dose coded as 1–3; recon method FBP, IR1 to IR3 coded as 1–4
  2. FBP filtered back projection, IR iterative reconstruction
