Effects of energy level, reconstruction kernel, and tube rotation time on Hounsfield units of hydroxyapatite in virtual monochromatic images obtained with dual-energy CT.

Conclusion: The HU values of hydroxyapatite were strongly correlated with hydroxyapatite density and energy level in VMIs obtained with DECT. PMID: 31915612 [PubMed]
