Article Synopsis
  • Computed tomography (CT) typically loses detailed spectral absorption information, but dual energy CT (DECT) and advanced photon counting chips are paving the way for spectral CT (SCT), which can extract this data.
  • The study explores how CT density measurements change with kilovoltage using a prototype SCT system, highlighting the need for radiologists to adjust their understanding of CT density.
  • A proposed modified Hounsfield Unit (HU) incorporating mean energy (HU(keV)) aims to bridge the knowledge gap between conventional CT and SCT, along with the need for new visualization tools to present spectral CT data effectively.
