Contrast timing optimization of a two-volume dynamic CT pulmonary perfusion technique

Abstract The purpose of this study is to develop and validate an optimal timing protocol for a low-radiation-dose CT pulmonary perfusion technique using only two volume scans. A total of 24 swine (48.5 ± 14.3 kg) underwent contrast-enhanced dynamic CT. Multiple contrast injections were made under di...
