Dual-energy computed tomography to detect early pulmonary vascular changes in children with sickle cell disease: a pilot study

INTRODUCTION: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a rare but fatal complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that is possibly reversible if treated early. Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) is a valuable tool for diagnosing PH. We attempted to determine if DECT can detect early signs of PH in childre...
