The impact of volume averaging error with presently available high-resolution abdominal CT scans. Examples show the portion of a spherical stone affected by CT volume averaging error when spatial uncertainty of x-ray attenuation values extends 2 mm into the stone. Note that the volume of the stone represented in the outermost 2 mm region is substantial, even for larger stones.
