CSF rhinorrhea: non-contrast CT, contrast-enhanced CT cisternography or combined?
Background Radiologic diagnosis of CSF leaks is challenging. We evaluated the diagnostic value of non-contrast CT and contrast-enhanced CT cisternography in identifying the presence of CSF rhinorrhea and site of leak as well as comparing them to surgical

Economic impact of spectral body imaging in diagnosis of patients suspected for occult cancer
Background Based on prior studies spectral CT has shown a higher sensitivity for malignant lesions than conventional CT at the cost of lower specificity. For the radiologists, it also offers a higher degree of certainty in the diagnosis of benign lesions.
