“ An optimal analysis of thoracic circulation can be achieved on virtual monochromatic spectral images at 60 keV and 100 keV and on the original polychromatic images at 80 kV and 140 kV.” Spectral Optimization of Chest CT Angiography with Reduced Iodine Load: Experience in 80 Patients Evaluated with Dual-Source, Dual Energy CT Delesalle MA et al Radiology 2013; 267:256-266
“ The use of low concentration contrast media for dual-source, dual energy CT angiography enables suppression of streak artifacts around systemic veins on high energy images while providing satisfactory central arterial enhancement on low energy images; the additional advantage of this scanning mode is the considerable reduction in the amount of iodine administered to patients.” Spectral Optimization of Chest CT Angiography with Reduced Iodine Load: Experience in 80 Patients Evaluated with Dual-Source, Dual Energy CT Delesalle MA et al Radiology 2013; 267:256-266
