Brief description/objective

To assess the performance of semi-automated volumetry of solid pulmonary nodules on single-energy tin-filtered ultralow dose (ULD) chest CT scans at a radiation dose equivalent to chest X-ray relative to standard dose (SD) chest CT scans and assess the impact of kernel and iterative reconstruction selection.
