Identification of Traumatic Bone Marrow Oedema: The Pearls and Pitfalls of Dual-Energy CT (DECT)

open access: yesTomography, 2021
Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) has been reported to successfully identify bone marrow oedema (BME) in various traumatic settings. DECT has multiple strengths, including the availability of both a 3D view of the anatomical area studied and of high-

Hyperacute Incidental Late Myocardial Enhancement in Ischemic Stroke Using Chest Spectral CT: Relationship with Etiology

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Background: Hyperacute cardiac imaging of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), though desirable, is impractical. Using delayed-enhancement, low-dose, non-gated, chest spectral computed tomography scans (DESCT), we explored the prevalence and ...

Enhancing virtual monoenergetic images for non-congruent dual-energy CT projection data

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2023
This study investigates the application of joint bilateral filtering for noise reduction in fast kVp switching dualenergy computed tomography (DECT). A high resolution image is calculated from non-congruent data of two scans with different energy spectra.

Virtual Monoenergetic Imaging of Lower Extremities Using Dual-Energy CT Angiography in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most common metabolic disorder in the world and an important risk factor for peripheral arterial disease (PAD). CT angiography represents the method of choice for the diagnosis, pre-operative planning, and

[Dual-energy CT]. [PDF]

open access: yesUgeskrift for laeger, 2021
Dual-energy CT (DECT) is an emerging imaging technique and has become increasingly available in Danish hospitals in recent years. DECT utilizes data acquired from high and low kV photons. This allows for the separation of materials based on their atomic buildup, which can be visualised and quantified during post-processing.

Dual-energy subtraction mammography [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Digital Imaging, 1995
Dual-energy subtraction mammography was performed for breast examinations. To obtain a dual-energy subtraction image with a digital radiography unit, high- and low-energy images were obtained at an appropriate time interval under different x-ray exposure conditions.
