“…In terms of nodule volumetry, two studies have reported slight underestimation of nodule volume in ULDCT when compared to RDCT, using comparable reconstruction settings as in our study. 30,31 However, the underestimation was negligible in absolute volume, which is in line with our findings.…”

“…In a study by Huber and colleagues, the ULDCT detection rate was lower than standard CT (93.3 vs. 95.5%, respectively) due to the under-detection of <5 mm solid and sub-solid nodules, which, however, was compensated by using maximum intensity projection (MIP) reconstructions and a computer-aided-detection (CAD) software [ 73 ]. Another study by Gheysens and colleagues evaluated nodule assessment of ULDCT by using a scoutless CT at a fixed CTDIvol of 0.15 mGy [ 74 ]. The authors found that nodule detection rate was comparable between standard CT and ULDCT: 76 and 78%, respectively; however detection significantly relied on nodule size, since up to 20% of <5 mm nodules were missed by ULDCT [ 74 ].…”

The authors found that nodule detection rate was comparable between standard CT and ULDCT: 76 and 78%, respectively; however detection significantly relied on nodule size, since up to 20% of <5 mm nodules were missed by ULDCT [ 74 ]. Due to the blurred edges, the nodule measurements were 9% lower compared to standard CT; given that this value is below the interscan variability, this difference would not affect the nodule management [ 74 ].…”
