Advantages of 70-kV CT Angiography for the Visualization of the Adamkiewicz Artery: Comparison with 120-kV Imaging [SPINE]

CONCLUSIONS:
Seventy-kilovolt CTA has substantial advantages for the identification of the Adamkiewicz artery before aortic repair, with a significantly lower radiation exposure and superior image quality than 120-kV CTA.
