Industry Collaboration with Canon Medical Systems USA, Inc: Comparison of PIQE-based Cardiac CT Imaging Plus Perfusion Analysis vs. Standard Reconstructions for CAD-RADS Classification and Cost-Effectiveness

Industry: Canon Medical Systems USA, Inc

Principal Investigator: Bruno Hochhegger

Project description: This retrospective study provides real-world evidence on how advanced deep-learning reconstructions (PIQE) plus retrospective CT perfusion might improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce downstream costs compared to standard reconstructions by leveraging existing CCTA datasets. Results could guide radiology departments and cardiologists deciding whether to invest in advanced post-processing software, clarifying its clinical and economic value.
