    FCPRN structure
    Spectral CT system based on photon-counting detector
    Reconstructed spectral CT images of the six energy ranges at one positionThe energy ranges from (a) to (f) are 25~90, 30~90, 35~90, 40~90, 45~90 and 50~90 keV; The noise in reconstructed spectral CT images of different energy ranges are distinct
    Reference images of the six energy ranges at one positionThe energy ranges from (a) to (f) are 25~90, 30~90, 35~90, 40~90, 45~90 and 50~90 keV
    Denoising results of DNCNN, REDCNN and FCPRN in three energy bins (25~90, 35~90 and 45~90 keV)
    Details of denoising based on DNCNN, REDCNN and FCPRN in the three energy bins (25~90, 35~90 and 45~90 keV)
