Abstract:
This work focuses on implementing a standardized and symptom-oriented flowchart for advanced cardiac imaging in a 24/7 emergency setting using a dual-layer spectral detector CT system. This flowchart was designed to optimize patient management and standardize imaging workflow. It includes acquisition parameters and contrast agent protocols for the most relevant clinical questions regarding cardiac CT imaging in the interdisciplinary emergency department. The automated reconstruction of symptom-oriented spectral images represents an additional strength here. This implementation is designed to be time-efficient and user-friendly and improves diagnostic quality, independent of the qualification level of clinical and technical personnel.

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
