P‑values of the quantitative analyses for conventional CT (A) and CBCT (B). Significant difference was observed between all study groups, except for PHIL 25% vs. saline in conventional CT
P‑values of the qualitative analyses for conventional CT (C) and CBCT (D). There was no statistically significant difference between the EVOH-based LEAs Onyx 18 and Squid 18 while all other groups demonstrated a significantly different degree of artifacts in both imaging modalities
