Graph showing the standard deviation (SD) values in original images and images processed with the Quantum Denoising Software (QDS) and weighted local averaging based on neighbor linking (NLK). QDS is implemented in current CT systems by Toshiba, and NLK was proposed in Ref. 7. Q03 for QDS is a parameter for pediatric body exclusive use. The QDS and NLK process is not effective in small (<15 cm) display FOV (DFOV) corresponding to the pediatric body.
