title: Tissue signatures with dual-energy computed tomography.
abstract: By providing information on two parameters, dual-energy computed tomography can offer clinically useful tissue signatures for metallic deposits (Ca) or injected iodine, as well as for different normal and abnormal types of brain parenchymal tissues and CSF. Cerebral CT was performed on 36 patients and tissue differences analyzed using Hounsfield notation.
