Abstract

A reduced volume of iodine contrast in protocol using dual flow injection system in DE-CTPA can be used in routine practice, in majority of patients even without need to increase iodine enhancement by virtual low-keV monoenergetic imaging. Further reduction of CM volume is possible in selected patient populations with routine evaluation of monoenergetic images instead of conventional imaging.
