Quantification of liver fat in the presence of iron and iodine: an ex-vivo dual-energy CT study.

PURPOSE Iodinated contrast media (CM) and iron in the liver are known to hinder an accurate quantification of liver fat content (LFC) with single-energy computed tomography (SECT). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of dual-energy CT (DECT) for ex vivo quantification of LFC, in the presence of iron and CM, compared with SECT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixteen p...

Dual-Energy CT in Neuroimaging

Image contrast in CT is mostly dependent on elements with high atomic weight, such as calcium, iron, and iodine The concentrations of these elements can be calculated from dual-energy x-ray data based on their characteristic attenuation patterns Dual-energy CT may can be helpful in neuroimaging to: Differentiate between hemorrhage and iodinated contrast agents in brain parenchyma Improve CT ang...

Nonuniqueness in dual-energy CT.

PURPOSE The goal is to determine whether dual-energy computed tomography (CT) leads to a unique reconstruction using two basis materials. METHODS The beam-hardening equation is simplified to the single-voxel case. The simplified equation is rewritten to show that the solution can be considered to be linear operations in a vector space followed by a measurement model which is the sum of the ex...

A novel dual energy CT-based attenuation correction method in PET/CT systems: A phantom study

  In present PET/CT scanners, PET attenuation correction is performed by relying on the information given by CT scan. In the CT-based attenuation correction methods, dual-energy technique (DECT) is the most accurate approach, which has been limited due to the increasing patient dose. In this feasibility study, we have introduced a new method that can implement dual-en...

Dual-energy CT for therapy monitoring: histogram analyses of iodine maps reveal typical pattern of enhancement

Aim Functional information for appropriate therapy monitoring of advanced targeted therapies is essential, but standard follow up (FU) examinations with computed tomography (CT) still focus on traditional size measurements. Iodine quantification with dual energy CT (DECT) enables additional quantitative assessment of contrast media uptake. Our purpose was to investigate patterns of contrast med...
