Core Tip |
The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the efficiency of hepatic multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) with dynamic contrast enhancement using iodixanol 270 mg/mL and 80 kVp acquisitions reconstructed with sinogram affirmed iterative reconstruction in comparison with a standard protocol using Iohexol 350 mg/mL and 120 kVp acqui-sitions. MDCT imaging with 80 kVp with iterative reconstruction and iodixanol 270 yields equal or even better image quality. The proposed MDCT protocol with less iodine load and lower radiation dose may thus be applied for liver imaging in patients with impaired renal or cardiac function but also in the general population.
