520    The aim of this book is fourfold: to describe the basic 
       principles of Dual Energy CT (DECT) imaging, to explain 
       how post-processing is utilized, to critically appraise 
       the strengths and weaknesses of the technique in oncologic
       imaging, and above all, to demonstrate the contribution of
       DECT in the management of oncologic patients. Information 
       is provided on the practice and interpretation of DECT and
       its impact on clinical decision making in a variety of 
       oncological settings, including tumors of the head and 
       neck, lung, liver, pancreas, gastrointestinal system, 
       kidney, and musculoskeletal system. DECT is an innovative 
       imaging technique in which the application of two distinct
       energy settings provides a transition from density-based 
       image to spectral imaging. As detailed in this book, DECT 
       acquisition allows the simultaneous generation of multiple
       datasets which enable the radiologist to address varied 
       diagnostic problems in oncologic imaging using a 
       multiparametric approach, having clear advantages in tumor
       detection, lesion characterization and evaluation of 
       treatment response.
