Revival of monophasic contrast injection protocols: superiority of a monophasic injection protocol compared to a biphasic injection protocol in high-pitch CT angiography.

CONCLUSION: High-pitch CTA monophasic injection protocols are superior to biphasic injection protocols, due to a higher and more homogeneous contrast enhancement with the same amount of contrast medium used. PMID: 26663210 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
