In-room imaging and MR planning

Pseudo-Monoenergetic Images Considerations

• The two basis materials are iodine and water. All calibration values are stored and cannot be changed. • The acquisition protocol is straight forward. In some vendors’ softwares, pseudo- monoenergetic images can be calculated in rawdata domain directly. • Pseudo-monoenergetic can be used for spectroscopic analysis, plotting CT values of an ROI for different energies. • It can be used also to optimize CNR. • Again, high spectral separation and low noise would lead to better and more robust results.
