Initial experience with dual-energy computed tomography-guided bone biopsies of bone lesions that are occult on monoenergetic CT
ConclusionThe authors demonstrate that the DECT VNCa bone marrow algorithm may be helpful in identifying isodense bone lesions of various histologies and may be used to guide percutaneous bone biopsies. This technique may help to maximize diagnostic yield, minimize the number of passes into the region of concern, and prevent patients from undergoing repeat biopsy.
