| Core Tip |
The aim of this study was to evaluate the contrast enhancement boost (CE-boost) method of enhancing equilibrium phase (EP) computed tomography images in liver imaging compared to portal venous phase and EP images, and to reduce radiation dose by switching from triphasic to biphasic imaging. The results show that contrast enhancement boost of EP images have the same or better image quality as portal venous phase images, suggesting that a reduction in radiation dose is possible. |
