The phrase "a slice width of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to measurements, particularly in fields like cooking, woodworking, or any area where dimensions are relevant.
Example: "For the recipe, you should cut the vegetables to a slice width of half an inch for even cooking."
Alternatives: "a thickness of" or "a width of".
Covering the whole brain, the image volumes consisted of 30 transaxial slices oriented parallel to the bi-commissural plane with a minimal resolution in plane of 3.125×3.125 mm2, a slice width of 4 mm and distance between slices of 0.4 mm.
As a minimum, coronal and sagittal reconstructions with a slice width of 0.5 mm and a slice interval of 0.2 to 0.6 mm were available.
For calcium scoring, non-overlapping images with a slice width of 3 mm were reconstructed using a medium-sharp convolution kernel (B35f).
Covering the whole brain, image volumes consisted of 30 transaxial slices parallel to the bi-commissural plane with a minimal resolution in plane of 3.125 × 3.125 mm, a slice width of 4 mm and distance between slices of 0.4 mm.
For CACS, a prospective electrocardiography-gated scan was performed with a slice-width of 3 mm, a tube voltage of 100 kV, 80 mAs, collimation 32 × 1.2, and table feed of 34.5 mm.
Image reconstruction was performed using a sharp convolution kernel (Siemens B46f) with a reconstruction slice width of 0.75 mm and a 0.5-mm increment.
Since precision in the range of 1 mm is desirable, spatial resolution must be high with an acquisition protocol that obtains a reconstructed slice width of ≤1.0 mm throughout the entire imaging volume, particularly of the aortic valve, aortic root and ilio-femoral arteries.
Images were reconstructed with an effective slice width of 0.625 mm at an increment of 0.4 mm.
For CCTA, at least a 16-slice scanner is required, but a ≥ 64-slice multidetector-row CT is recommended, with an imaging capability for slice width of 0.4 0.6 mm and temporal resolution of 500 ms or less; ≤ 350 ms is preferred [ 41, 42].
PET images were acquired using the PET scanner GE Advance General Electric Medical Systemss, Milwaukee, WI, USA), which has a transaxial resolution of 3.8 mm (full width at half maximum [FWHM]) and slice width of 4.2 mm in the centre of the imaging field [ 17].
Scans were conducted on excised left femurs as previously described [9] with following settings: voxel size of 70 µm, scan speed of 5 mm/sec and slice width of 0.2 mm.
