Abstract:
A system includes acquisition of a spectral topogram of a target, determination, based on the spectral topogram, of an attenuation associated with each of a plurality of regions of the target and a composition of each of the plurality of regions, determination of imaging parameters associated with the plurality of regions based on the determined attenuation and composition, and acquisition of an image of the target based on the imaging parameters.
