Pectus excavatum (PEx) is a chest wall deformity that leads to sternal depression and can impair cardiopulmonary function. CT imaging is used for surgical planning but exposes children to a significant radiation dose.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate image quality and detection of thoracic pathology on ultra-low dose CT in children with PEx. Read More
