Abstract
A dual pulse imaging method is provided comprising the steps of generating a first image of a region of interest by a first pulse delivering a first dose, generating a second image of the region of interest by a second pulse delivering a second dose different from the first dose, and computing a third image of the region of interest using data from the first and second images. A threshold can be identified for determining data from the first and second images to be used in computing the third image. A dual pulse imaging system is also provided.
