About
Lukas Goertz is a leading researcher in the field of advanced musculoskeletal imaging, with a primary focus on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of the extremities. His work centers on optimizing image quality while minimizing radiation exposure, a critical balance for clinical radiology. Goertz’s major contributions include pioneering studies on dose reduction potential in CBCT imaging of upper extremity joints using a twin robotic X-ray system. He has also systematically investigated the effect of tin prefiltration on extremity CBCT, demonstrating how this technique can refine image acquisition parameters for better diagnostic clarity. His highly cited papers, each garnering 7 citations, are foundational in establishing protocols for safer, more efficient 3D imaging of bone microarchitecture. By evaluating combinations of acquisition and reconstruction parameters, Goertz has directly influenced the practical application of robotic X-ray systems in orthopedics and rheumatology. His work is essential reading for researchers and clinicians seeking to leverage advanced CT technology for detailed appendicular skeleton visualization without compromising patient safety.
