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. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed August 26, 2015) 650 0 Cancer|xTomography. 650 0 Dual energy CT (Tomography) 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 Cancer|xTomography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00845537 650 7 Dual energy CT (Tomography)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01921030 700 1 Cecco, Carlo N.
