Fig 2

(A) Monochromatic 70-keV, (B) monochromatic 140-keV, (C) iodine (calcium), (D) iodine (HAP), and (E) iodine (water) images of the marker location of the stent phantom show metallic artifacts on the iodine(water) images (white arrow) are considerably reduced. (F) Monochromatic 70-keV, (G) monochromatic 140-keV, (H) iodine (calcium), (I) iodine (HAP), and (J) iodine (water) images of the lumen location of the stent phantom reveal that nitinol produces few metallic artifacts in all modes.
