Accuracy of photon-counting detector CT-based iodine maps for myocardial late enhancement detection
Question Can PCD CT iodine maps detect myocardial late enhancement with accuracy comparable to LGE-MRI? Findings PCD-CT iodine maps achieved high accuracy (85.2% per patient, > 90% per segment) with substantial inter-reader agreement. Clinical relevance PCD-CT iodine maps offer a valuable alternative to LGE-MRI for myocardial late enhancement assessment, especially for patients with contraindications to MRI.
