Advances in imaging for the assessment of calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease [PDF]
Calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) deposition (CPPD) disease is a common form of inflammatory arthritis. Despite its prevalence, it’s an under-studied condition and its diagnosis is still challenging.

Gouty arthritis: Can we avoid unnecessary dual-energy CT examinations using prior radiographs? [PDF]
OBJECTIVE:The dual-energy CT (DECT) algorithm for urate detection is feasible only if hyperdense deposits are present. Based on our experience, around half of the performed DECT examinations show no such deposits and thus were useless for this indication.

Incidental pulmonary emboli in stage IV melanoma patients: Prevalence in CT staging examinations and improved detection with vessel reconstructions based on dual energy CT. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES:Malignancy is the strongest predictor for venous thromboembolism. Dual energy CT (DECT) can support assessment of pulmonary emboli (PE) by providing vessel reconstructions (DECT-VR) and highlighting thrombi. Purpose was to determine prevalence
