title = "Evaluation of a direct-indirect dual layer detector for contrast enhanced breast imaging: Monte Carlo simulations and physical experiments",
abstract = "We proposed a direct-indirect dual layer detector combination for CEDM and CEDBT to eliminate patient motion artifacts in dual energy images. Both physical experiments and Monte Carlo simulations were conducted to compare dual shot technique with the dual layer technique. The proposed direct-indirect dual layer detector combination uses a 200 m direct a-Se as the front detector for LE images and a 4001000 m indirect CsI as the back detector for HE images. Results showed similar breast tissue cancellation between dual layer and dual shot techniques. Dual layer technique with direct-indirect detector has higher SDNR/MGD compared with dual shot technique.",
