Article Synopsis
- The study assesses how dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) can quantitatively evaluate fat tissue, especially for liver steatosis, by analyzing the impact of radiation doses and reconstruction kernels on fat fraction estimation.
- A six-probe phantom with varying fat concentrations was scanned, showing that fat fractions determined by DECT generally aligned with the actual concentrations, although the measurement could be affected by changes in radiation dose and reconstruction settings.
- Results indicated that while a softer reconstruction kernel underestimated fat fraction, other kernels overestimated it; overall, a 3% variation in fat fraction measurement due to radiation dose was considered acceptable.
