Impact of Intravenously Injected Contrast Agent on Bone Mineral Density Measurement in Dual-Source Dual-Energy CT

To assess the influence of intravenously injected contrast agent on bone mineral density (BMD) assessment in dual-source dual-energy CT.This retrospective study included 1,031 patients (mean age, 53 ± 7 years; 519 women) who had undergone third-generation dual-source dual-energy CT in context of tumor staging between January 2019 and December 2019. Dedicated postprocessing software based on material decomposition was used for phantomless...
