Iodine accumulation of the liver in patients treated with amiodarone can be unmasked using material decomposition from multiphase spectral-detector CT

Amiodarone accumulates in the liver, where it increases x-ray attenuation due to its iodine content. We evaluated liver attenuation in patients treated and not treated with amiodarone using true-non-contrast (TNC) and virtual-non-contrast (VNC) images acquired with spectral-detector-CT (SDCT). 142 p...
