The higher sensitivity of the 6-ring DMI compared to the 5-ring configuration may lead to improved image quality of clinical images at reduced scan time. Additionally, it could equally be used to allow improved temporal sampling and/or reduced overall scan time in dynamic acquisitions. Conversely, temporal sampling and scan time could be traded per application to further drive injected dose at lower levels.
