Single-energy versus dual-energy imaging during CT-guided biopsy using dedicated metal artifact reduction algorithm in an in vivo pig model.

<h4>Purpose</h4>To evaluate dual-energy CT (DE) and dedicated metal artifact reduction algorithms (iMAR) during CT-guided biopsy in comparison to single-energy CT (SE).<h4>Methods</h4>A trocar was placed in the liver of six pigs. CT acquisitions were performed with SE and dos...
