The Best of Both Worlds: Ultra-high-pitch Pulmonary Angiography with Free-Breathing Technique by Means of Photon-Counting Detector CT for Diagnosis of Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Ultra-high-pitch CTPA with free-breathing technique with PCD-CT allows for superior image quality with significantly reduced radiation dose and full spectral information. With the ultra-high pitch, only PCD-CTPA enables reconstruction of iodine maps containing additional functional information.
