From: Effects of High-concentration contrast material and low-voltage CT on contrast for multiphasic CT of the upper abdomen: comparison using the simulation with virtual monochromatic imaging obtained by fast-switch kVp dual-energy CT

Figure 2

53-year-old woman weighed 50 kg and had a normal liver. a, b, and c: 65-keV VM images; d, e, and f: 50-keV VM images obtained in the early arterial (a and d), late arterial (b and e), and portal venous (c and f) phases after administration of 600 mgI/kg of 350-mgI/ml concentration contrast material, which were displayed with the standard abdominal window. Attenuation of vessels and hepatic parenchyma is increased on the 50-keV VM images compared with the 65-keV VM images.
