Objective
Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) heralds the next leap in (medical) X-ray imaging and delivers images with astonishingly high contrast, high spatial resolution, and low noise. Moreover, PCCT allows a reduction in X-ray dose compared to conventional CT. Uniquely, the spectral capabilities of PCCT (also called ""color"" CT) enable quantitative imaging functions, such as measuring tissue composition or the concentration of contrast agents. The widespread use of PCCT in hospitals is still hampered by high costs
