Dual-energy index variation when evaluating the potential ferromagnetism of ex vivo bullets

Dual-energy index variation when evaluating the potential ferromagnetism of ex vivo bullets

Background: An MRI is potentially hazardous for patients with retained ferromagnetic bullets. Recent studies have aimed to develop dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) as a screening tool for recognising highly ferromagnetic bullets. Inconsistent findings have been ascribed to inherent CT technolo...
