Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Advances in multidetector technology have made dual-energy computed tomography (CT) imaging possible. Dual-energy CT imaging enables tissue characterization in addition to morphologic evaluation of imaged regions. This article reviews current and potential CT technology, technical and workflow considerations when performing dual-energy CT, and clinical applications in the thorax, with an emphasis on the knowledge gained so far.
