Dual energy computed tomography analysis in cancer patients: What factors affect iodine concentration in contrast enhanced studies?

European Journal of Radiology Nov 12, 2019

Corrias G, Sawana P, Mahmood U, et al. - Via a retrospective study of consecutive people with various cancers who underwent a single-source dual-energy CT (ssDECT) examinations between years 2015 and 2017, experts investigated the patient's and scan's parameters that impact the iodine concentration in the abdomen using DECT in an oncologic population. Results explicated that iodine concentration is greatly dependent on some intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the examination. Since a lower concentration of iodine reduction contrast-to-noise ratio, and in longitudinal follow up studies, they would influence iodine quantitive evaluations in cancer individuals with common chemotherapy-induced alterations in BMI and cardiac function, these parameters should be considered.
