Giant renal cell carcinoma: CT and MR characteristics.

abstract：:We propose an adaptive nonlocal means approach for image-domain material decomposition in low-dose dual-energy micro-computed tomography. The key idea is to create a distribution map for decomposition error and assign a smooth weight for a given pixel. This method is applied to the decomposed images of 3 basis materia...
