Hepatic extracellular volume fraction obtained by dual-energy CT: a comparison of 3- and 5-min delayed phases and correlation with clinical data
Three-minute delayed phase images were found to be equivalent to 5-min delayed phase images for calculating ECV in the same patients, and both 3- and 5-min delayed phase CT scans showed strong and moderate correlation with serum fibrous makers, including ALBI score and grade and fibrosis-4 index. This could facilitate the clinical use of hepatic ECV in daily practice.
