Application of adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction veo and 80 kv in renal computed tomography angiography

To explore the application of adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction Veo (ASIR-V) and 80 kV in renal computed tomography angiography(CTA). Eighty patients with renal computed tomography angiography were prospectively collected from April 2018 to July 2018 in the Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine and randomly divided into group A and group B. The patients in group A adopted tube voltage 120 kV and contrast agent concentration 600 mgI/kg and reconstructed with filtered back projection (FBP), while the patients in group B were scanned with tube voltage 80 kV and contrast agent concentration 350 mgI/kg and reconstructed with FBP and ASIR-V from 10% to 100% with 10% interval. The CT values and standard deviation (SD) of the right renal artery, left renal artery were measured respectively to calculate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR).The image quality of renal CTA was subjectively scored by two experienced radiologists blindly using a 5-point crite
