Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry
Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2017Bone mineral density (BMD) measurement by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most commonly used method to assess fracture risk. DXA utilizes two different energy X-rays to calculate BMD and, by comparison to a young normative database, the T-score.

In recent years, developments in CT, especially the development of multi-detector CT (MDCT), have provided new and better tools for the evaluation of patients presenting with hematuria and flank pain. The ability of MDCT to provide rapid contiguous thin-slice imaging through the abdomen allowed for the development of CT urography (CTU) protocols for ...

Dual-Energy CT: Vascular Applications
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2012Dual-energy CT permits a variety of image reconstructions for the depiction and characterization of vascular disease. Techniques include visualization of low- and high-peak-kilovoltage spectra image datasets and also material-specific reconstructions combining both low- and high-peak-kilovoltage data.This article focuses on four main vascular areas ...

Quantitative Dual-Energy Coronary Arteriography
Investigative Radiology, 1990Subtraction techniques for digital cardiac imaging have been hampered by misregistration artifacts. The use of dual-energy imaging is being evaluated as a means for reducing these artifacts. Results reported previously indicate that the dual-energy technique may be useful for applications such as exercise ventriculography and general quantification ...

Thoracic Applications of Dual Energy
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2010Recent technological advances in multidetector computed tomography (CT) have led to the introduction of dual-source CT, which allows acquisition of CT data at the same energy or at 2 distinct tube voltage settings during a single acquisition. The advantage of the former is improvement of temporal resolution, whereas the latter offers new options for CT

Dual-energy mammography: simulation studies
Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2006This paper presents a mammography simulator and demonstrates its applicability in feasibility studies in dual-energy (DE) subtraction mammography. This mammography simulator is an evolution of a previously presented x-ray imaging simulation system, which has been extended with new functionalities that are specific for DE simulations.

Dual-energy contrast-enhanced mammography
Radiología (English Edition), 2014The degree of vascularization in breast lesions is related to their malignancy. For this reason, functional diagnostic imaging techniques have become important in recent years. Dual-energy contrast-enhanced mammography is a new, apparently promising technique in breast cancer that provides information about the degree of vascularization of the lesion ...

Dual-energy Compton scatter tomography
Physics in Medicine and Biology, 1986A dual-energy Compton scatter imaging technique, analogous to that used in computed tomography and conventional radiography, has been explored. It is shown that this technique allows the photoelectric component of the attenuation factors for the primary and scattered radiations to be derived.

An energy sensitive cassette for dual‐energy mammography
Medical Physics, 1989A cassette for simultaneously acquiring dual‐energy mammographic images is proposed and studied utilizing a theoretical noise analysis model. The cassette consists of a sandwich of two storage phosphor plates separated by a copper filter. The front, low atomic number, plate was assumed to be comprised of SrFBr and the rear, high atomic number, plate of
