Hepatic Fat Quantification with the Multi-Material Decomposition Algorithm by Using Low-Dose Non-Contrast Material-Enhanced Dual-Energy Computed Tomography in a Prospectively Enrolled Cohort.

The early diagnosis of hepatic steatosis is important. No study has assessed hepatic fat quantification by using low-dose dual-energy computed tomography (CT). We assessed the accuracy of hepatic fat quantification using the multi-material decomposition (MMD) algorithm with low-dose non-contrast material-enhanced dual-energy CT.
