Low-voltage (80-kVp) abdominopelvic computed tomography allows 60% contrast dose reduction in patients at risk of contrast-induced nephropathy

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of image in abdominopelvic late phase computed tomography (CT) with a low tube voltage plus low dose contrast medium (CM) protocol (80-kVp, 60% CM). A compared with the conventional protocol (120-kVp, 100% CM) B in the same patients. This study i...

description The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of image in abdominopelvic late phase computed tomography (CT) with a low tube voltage plus low dose contrast medium (CM) protocol (80-kVp, 60% CM). A compared with the conventional protocol (120-kVp, 100% CM) B in the same patients. This study included with 22 patients {36 to 77 kg (mean: 55.5 kg)} who had renal insufficiency and had experience of performance conventional CT without renal insufficiency during pre-18 months. The CT value of the portal vein, liver parenchyma, abdominal aorta, psoas muscle was measured. The estimated mean CNR (contrast-to-noise ratios), FOM (figure of merit), DLP (dose length product) and ED (effective dose) were compared between protocol A and B. Moreover, two radiologists assessed the visual quality of the CT images. The mean DLP and ED in the protocol B was about 50% lower than that in the protocol A (p
