Abstract

To prospectively evaluate the accuracy of computed tomographic (CT) perfusion measurements of renal hemodynamics and function obtained by using images acquired with one-tenth the typical radiation dose and postprocessed with a highly constrained back-projection (HYPR)-local reconstruction (LR) noise-reduction technique.
