Abstract:Objectives
Especially patients with aortic aneurysms and multiple computed tomography angiographies (CTA) might show medical conditions which oppose the use of iodine-based contrast agents. CTA using monoenergetic reconstructions from dual layer CT and gadolinium (Gd-)based contrast agents might be a feasible alternative in these patients. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of clinical spectral CTA with a Gd-based contrast agent in patients with aortic aneurysms.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
