The PROTECTION V trial is a multicenter randomized prospective clinical trial concerning the use of iterative image reconstruction to reduce the radiation dose in coronary CT angiography. In 400 cases it could be shown that a 30% reduction in radiation dose can be achieved, whilst maintaining the same CT image quality as previous standard procedures, by applying iterative image reconstruction with a reduced tube current.
This study therefore contributes significantly towards radiation protection in coronary CTA.
