Multidector CT of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: effect of tube-voltage and iodine-load on tumour conspicuity, vessel involvement and image quality

Multidector CT of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: effect of tube-voltage and iodine-load on tumour conspicuity, vessel involvement and image quality

Thirty consecutive patients (mean age 66 years, 14 men) underwent preoperatively twice triple-phase 64-channel MDCT examinations according to: (i) 120 kV standard protocol (PS; 0.75g I/Kg body-weight, n=30) and (ii) 80 kV protocol A (PA; 0.75g I/kg, n=14) or B (PB; 1g I/kg, n=16).
