Objective The aims of this study were to investigate the ability of contrast-enhanced dual-
energy computed tomography (DECT) for assessing regional perfusion in a model of acute …

Background Dynamic single-slice CT (dCT) is increasingly used to examine the intra-tidal,
physiological variation in aeration and lung density in experimental lung injury. The ability of …

Purpose To compare measurements of regional pulmonary perfused blood volume (PBV)
and pulmonary blood flow (PBF) obtained with computed tomography (CT) in two pig …

Purpose: Radiotherapy (RT) that selectively avoids irradiating highly functional lung regions
may reduce pulmonary toxicity, which is substantial in lung cancer RT. Single‐energy …

Abstract Dual-Energy Computed Tomography is of significant clinical interest due to the
possibility of material differentiation and quantification. In current clinical routine, primarily …

Objective: To evaluate dual-energy CT (DECT) findings of pulmonary ischaemic–reperfusion
injury (PIRI) and its pathophysiological correlation in the canine model. Methods: A PIRI …

Pulmonary perfusion has been poorly characterized in acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS). Optimizing protocols to measure pulmonary blood flow (PBF) via dynamic contrast …

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of dual-energy CT (DECT) ventilation imaging in
combination with DE perfusion mapping for a comprehensive assessment of ventilation …

Dual energy CT imaging is expected to play a major role in the diagnostic arena as it
provides material decomposition on an elemental basis. The purpose of this work is to …

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by a redistribution of regional
lung perfusion that impairs gas exchange. While speculative, experimental evidence …
