Most vendors offer scanners capable of dual- or multi-energy computed tomography (CT) imaging. Advantages of multi-energy CT scanning include superior tissue characterization, detection of subtle iodine uptake differences, and opportunities to reduce contrast dose. However, utilization of this technology in the emergency department (ED) remains low. The purpose of this pictorial essay is to illustrate the value of multi-energy CT scanning in emergency body imaging.
大多数供应商提供能够进行双能量或多能量计算机断层扫描(CT)成像的扫描仪。多能量CT扫描的优势包括卓越的组织特征分析、检测细微的碘摄取差异以及降低对比剂剂量的机会。然而,这项技术在急诊科(ED)的应用率仍然很低。这篇图文并茂的文章旨在阐述多能量CT扫描在急诊身体成像中的价值。
