Accuracy of Dual-Energy Computed Tomography Techniques for Fat Quantification in Comparison With Magnetic Resonance Proton Density Fat Fraction and Single-Energy Computed Tomography in an Anthropomorphic Phantom Environment

Conclusions Dual-energy computed tomography fat fraction shows linear correlation with true fat content in the range up to 50% fat fraction. Dual-energy computed tomography fat fraction has comparable estimation error and shows noninferiority to MR PDFF in detecting small differences in fat content across different body sizes.
