Abstract Objective: Triple phase (non-contrast, arterial, venous) single energy CT (SECT) scans are often used to monitor patients after endovascular thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair. We investigated the feasibility of replacing non-contrast and arterial phase SECT scans with a single arterial phase dual energy CT (DECT) scan and generating virtual non-contrast images. Methods: … Read more
