Photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT), as the latest generation of CT technology, possesses incomparable advantages over conventional energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT). However, there remains a research gap in the comparative evaluation of radiation dose characteristics between these two CT systems. This study systematically evaluated the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of iodinated contrast at various concentrations in PCD-CT phantom images, using enhanced CT scanning as the experimental model and comparing with an EID-CT system of the same architecture. The results demonstrate that under equivalent radiation dose levels, PCD-CT can improve the SNR by an average of 16.4% for iodine concentrations ranging from 2~15 mg/mL compared to EID-CT, confirming PCD-CT's advantage in low-dose imaging for iodinated contrast visualization. These findings provide quantitative evidence supporting PCD-CT's low-dose imaging superiority in contrast-enhanced CT examinations.
