Coronary calcium quantification using contrast‐enhanced dual‐energy computed tomography scans

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a direct measure of calcium burden by using dual‐energy computed tomography (DECT) during contrast‐enhanced coronary imaging, potentially eliminating the need for an extra noncontrast X‐ray acquisition. The ambiguity of separation of calcium from contrast mat...
