A Swiss study has shown that a CT protocol using tin filtration and iterative reconstruction reduces radiation dose levels to the equivalent of a chest x-ray for lung volumetry and also the detection and quantification of emphysema. The results nudge ultralow-dose CT ever closer to routine workup of chest pathologies.
