Comparison of radiation dose and image quality between fast kVp switching dual-energy CT and routine single-energy CT for whole abdomen at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital
Chanthawan Khemkhangboon
Abstract:Abdominal computed tomography (CT) using a single energy protocol is a common imaging procedure in hospitals. As CT technology has continued to evolve, dual-energy protocols (DECT) have emerged as a new option. A spectral CT scanner with fast kVp switching was installed at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital in 2017, and its clinical utility in emergency patients has not yet been studied. This study aims to compare the radiation dose and image quality between DECT and SECT in abdominal CT for emergency patien… Show more
