Contrast-enhanced dual-energy CT of gastrointestinal stromal tumors: is iodine-related attenuation a potential indicator of tumor response?

OBJECTIVES: To assess the correlation of true nonenhanced (TNE) and virtually nonenhanced (VNE) images of abdominal dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) in patients with metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and further to investigate the correlation of iodine-related attenuation (IRA...
