Scan and Reconstruction

HCE: The High-contrast enhancement (HCE) filter enhances high-contrast detectability. It increases the image sharpness, similar to reconstruction with a sharper kernel.

Increases sharpness

Faster than raw-data reconstruction

Enhances high-contrast detectability

Automatic post-processing

ASA: The Advanced Smoothing Algorithm (ASA) fil- ter reduces noise in soft tissue, while edges with high contrast are preserved.

Reduces noise without blurring of edges

Enhances low-contrast detectability

Individually adaptable

Automatic post-processing
