Accuracy of electron density, effective atomic number, and iodine concentration determination with a dual‐layer dual‐energy computed tomography system

Purpose This study aimed to quantitate the accuracy of the determination of electron density (ED), effective atomic number (Zeff), and iodine concentration, directed for more accurate radiation therapy planning, with a new dual‐layer dual‐energy computed tomography (DL‐DECT) system. The dependence o...
