Screening for osteoporosis based on IQon spectral CT virtual low monoenergetic images: Comparison with conventional 120 kVp images

Objectives: To explore the differences between low kiloelectron volt (keV) virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) using IQon spectral CT and conventional CT (120 kVp) in the diagnosis of osteoporosis. Methods: This retrospective study included 317 patients who underwent IQon spectral CT and dual-energy...
