Split-Bolus, Single-Acquisition, Dual-Phase Abdominopelvic CT Angiography for the Evaluation of Lung Transplant Candidates: Image Quality and Resource Utilization

摘要

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to assess the image quality and resource utilization of single-injection, split-bolus, dual-enhancement abdominopelvic CT angiography (hereafter referred to as dual-enhancement CTA) performed for combined vascular and solid organ assessment compared with those of single-injection, single-enhancement abdominopelvic CT angiography (hereafter referred to as single-enhancement CTA) for vascular assessment in combination with additional examinations (CT, MRI, and US) performed to assess for malignancy in lung transplant candidates.
