Photon-Counting Computed Tomography-Based Hepatic iron Quantification Using a Tungsten-Based Contrast Agent
The accuracy of iron quantification from a 3-material decomposition suggested clinically feasible detection and quantification of critical hepatic iron levels in enhanced CT scans with suitable CM. In a 2-material decomposition, severe pathology is required to detect an iron liver. W-based CM was superior to I-based CM.
