DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2019.108756
Abstract: PURPOSE Intravenous contrast administration is crucial in many CT examinations but also poses a potential risk to the patient. Monoenergetic images (MonoE) of dual-energy CT systems can virtually increase iodine attenuation and might improve image… read more here.
