Lesion Detection Assessment in the Liver: Standard vs Low Radiation Dose Using Varied Post-Processing Techniques
Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Summary
To compare 2 different image creation/processing techniques during a standard CT scan in order to "see" problems in the liver and learn which method provides better image quality. The techniques use new artificial intelligence software to decrease image noise, which helps the radiologist to evaluate.

Interventions
Computed Tomography Scan - 50% Dose Reduction
Participants undergo routine standard of care CT examination for colon carcinoma restaging, then have an additional scan of the liver at 50% dose reduction.
Computed Tomography Scan - 70% Dose Reduction
Participants undergo routine standard of care CT examination for colon carcinoma restaging, then have an additional scan of the liver at 70% dose reduction.
Deep Learning Image Reconstruction (DLIR)
Participants to receive standard-of-care imaging without the artificial intelligence software and imaging technique.
