Study flowchart. The control group consisted of patients who underwent abdominopelvic CT at a standard dose setting with IR. In contrast, the reduced dose group included patients who underwent abdominopelvic CT at a reduced dose setting using the SilverBeam filter in combination with DLR. Additionally, in the reduced-dose CT group, CE-boost images were obtained by integrating the CE images with subtracted images. These subtracted images were generated through postprocessing by subtracting the non-contrast images from the CE images. CT computed tomography; IR iterative reconstruction; DLR deep learning reconstruction; CE contrast-enhanced.
