How Well Does Dual-energy CT with Fast Kilovoltage Switching Quantify CT Number and Iodine and Calcium Concentrations?

Abstract：

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES:Because it is imperative for understanding the performance of dual-energy computed tomography scanner to determine clinical diagnosis, we aimed to assess the accuracy of quantitative measurements using dual-energy computed tomography with fast kilovoltage switching. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Quantitative measurements were performed for 16 reference materials (physical density, 0.965-1.550 g/cm3; diameter of rod, 2.0-28.5 mm; iodine concentration, 2-15 mg/mL; and calcium concentration, 50-300 mg/mL) with varying scanning settings, and the measured values were compared to their theoretical values. RESULTS:For high-density material, the maximum differences in Hounsfield unit values in the virtual monochromatic images at 50, 70, and 100 keV were -176.2, 61.0, and -35.2 HU, respectively, and the standard deviations over short- and long-term periods were 11.1, 6.1, and 3.5 HU at maximum. The accuracy of the Hounsfield unit measurement at 50 and 70 keV was significantly higher (P < 0.05) with higher radiation output and smaller phantom size. The difference in the iodine and calcium measurements in the large phantom were up to -2.6 and -60.4 mg/mL for iodine (5 mg/mL with 2-mm diameter) and calcium (300 mg/mL) materials, and the difference was improved with a small phantom. Metal artifact reduction software improved subjective image quality; however, the quantitative values were significantly underestimated (P < 0.05) (-49.5, -26.9, and -15.3 HU for 50, 70, and 100 keV, respectively; -1.0 and -17 mg/mL for iodine and calcium concentration, respectively) compared to that acquired without a metal material. CONCLUSIONS:The accuracy of quantitative measurements can be affected by material density and the size of the object, radiation output, phantom size, and the presence of metal materials.
