Although developed many years ago, DECT represents the newest significant advancement in the field of computed tomography, the clinical utility of which has recently expanded as many new applications have been developed. In the field of cardiovascular medicine, DECT has been applied for purposes such as the evaluation of myocardial ischemia, myocardial viability and atherosclerotic plaque characterization. As the first book of its kind, Dual-Energy CT in Cardiovascular Imaging contains practical and clinically relevant information on the protocols used that provide precise quantification of coronary artery stenosis using either different monochromatic levels or material decomposition, reduction of beam hardening artifacts in perfusion studies and optimizing endovenous contrast, among others. It is therefore a valuable read for residents, fellows and practicing clinicians in cardiac imaging and cardiology. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed October 8, 2015). 650 0 Dual energy CT (Tomography) 650 0 Heart|xTomography. 650 7 HEALTH & FITNESS / Diseases / General.|2bisacsh 650 7 MEDICAL / Clinical Medicine.|2bisacsh 650 7 MEDICAL / Diseases.|2bisacsh 650 7 MEDICAL / Evidence-Based Medicine.|2bisacsh 650 7 MEDICAL / Internal Medicine.|2bisacsh 650 7 Dual energy CT (Tomography)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01921030 650 7 Heart|xTomography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00953683 700 1 Carrascosa, Patricia,|eeditor. 700 1 Cury, Ricardo C.,|eeditor. 700 1 Garcia, Mario J.,|eeditor. 700 1 Leipsic, Jonathon,|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrinted edition:|z9783319212265 994 C0|bSTJ
