          Abstract

          Dual-energy CT is able to distinguish between materials based on differences in X-ray absorption at different X-ray beam energies. The strong k-edge photoelectric effect of materials with a high atomic number makes this modality ideal for identifying iodine-containing compounds. We aim to evaluate dual-energy CT for the detection of Gastrografin (GG) (diatrizoate, Bayer PLC, Reading, UK) enteric contrast medium and validate the conditions for the measurement in ex vivo samples.
