Performance of dual-energy CT for the assessment of fractional extracellular space in cirrhotic patients

    A study from La radiologia medica evaluated the performance of dual-energy CT at the early and delayed equilibrium phases for the assessment of fractional extracellular space (FES) in cirrhotic patients. FES was similar at the two time points and was moderately correlated to the endoscopic grade of oesophageal varices.
