We investigated the effect of deep learning-based image reconstruction (DLIR) compared to iterative reconstruction on image quality in CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) for suspected pulmonary embolism (PE). For 220 patients with suspected PE, CTPA studies were reconstructed using filtered back projection (FBP), adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASiR-V 30%, 60% and 90%) and DLIR (low, medium and high strength). Contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) served as the primary parameter of objective image quality. Subgroup analyses were performed for normal weight, overweight and obese individuals. For patients with confirmed PE (n = 40), we further measured PE-specific CNR. Subjective image quality was assessed independently by two experienced radiologists. CNR was lowest for FBP and enhanced with increasing levels of ASiR-V and, even more with increasing strength of DLIR. High strength DLIR resulted in an additional improvement in CNR by 29-67% compared to ASiR-V 90% (p < 0.05). PE-specific CNR increased by 75% compared to ASiR-V 90% (p < 0.05). Subjective image quality was significantly higher for medium and high strength DLIR compared to all other image reconstructions (p < 0.05). In CT pulmonary angiography, DLIR significantly outperforms iterative reconstruction for increasing objective and subjective image quality. This may allow for further reductions in radiation exposure in suspected PE.
