Assessing liver hemodynamics in children with cholestatic cirrhosis by use of dual-energy spectral CT

American Journal of Roentgenology Feb 27, 2020

Shang S, et al. - In this imaging study, researchers tried to find out the value of dual-energy CT in assessing liver hemodynamics in children with cholestatic cirrhosis. Researchers included a total of 60 children with cholestatic cirrhosis (study group) and 15 children with inherited metabolic diseases but normal liver function (control group) was retrospectively assessed. They obtained enhanced CT scans in spectral imaging mode. This study assessed iodine concentration of hepatic parenchyma in the arterial phase (ICA) and portal venous phase on iodine-water material decomposition images. The results of this study showed that ICA and AIF obtained at dual-energy CT can be applied as semiquantitative indicators to assess the liver hemodynamics of children with cholestatic cirrhosis.
