Dual-energy computed tomography has limited sensitivity for non-tophaceous gout: a comparison study with tophaceous gout

BACKGROUND: Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) is a new diagnostic tool for gout, but its sensitivity has not been established. Our goal was to assess the sensitivity of DECT for the detection of monosodium urate (MSU) deposits in non-tophaceous and tophaceous gout, both at the level of the pati...
