Fig. 5From: Optimal combination periprosthetic vasculature visualization and metal artifact reduction by spectral computed tomography using virtual monoenergetic images in total hip arthroplastyA series of post-processing CTA images of the same patient. 3D volume rendering (VR) (a), 3D VR without bone (b), maximum intensity projection (MIP) without bone (c), curved plannar reconstruction (CPR) (d, e), and slab MIP (f) images of the same patient on VMIMAR at 80Â keV. Images show most artifacts are removed and the vessel is slightly affected with acceptable vascular attenuation and sharp vascular contourBack to article page
