Summary

Using an investigational CT scanner which uses a new type of detector to capture X-rays, (a photon counting CT detector), the goal of this experimental study is to compare conventional CT images to CT images using the photon counting detector in patients undergoing CT scans for clinically indicated reasons. The main question it aims to answer is whether the images produced using the new detectors are superior in quality. Participants will undergo the clinically indicated CT images and the photon counting detector CT images of a limited area during the same examination time.

Interventions

DEVICE

PHOTON COUNTING CT Scanner

Enrolled patients will undergo the requested clinical diagnostic CT study on the investigational system using the standard detector, with or without IV and/or oral contrast as indicated and an limited scan of one body region using the PCCT detector. Both scans are able to be performed on the same scanner during the same examination.
