cVRT images reconstructed with reference images and UHR images, using the same preset, show the differences in the delineation of the calcified plaques, the stenosis and the small vessels in three dimensions. Note that even UHR images as thin as 0.2 mm reconstructed with sharper kernel of Bv60 can be used to create a cVRT image with optimal image quality, owing to the reduced image noise.
