Table 3 Different segmentation schemes for SECT and DECT for the validation phantom: SECT was segmented with three, four and seven number of materials. For DECT, the segmentation was performed with seven, eight or nine materials. For the ex-vivo mouse, SECT was segmented with three materials and DECT with six
