Persson, Anders; Jackowski, Christian; Engström, Elias; Zachrisson, Helene (2008). Advances of dual source, dual-energy imaging in postmortem CT. European journal of radiology, 68(3), pp. 446-55. Stuttgart: Thieme 10.1016/j.ejrad.2008.04.064
Full text not available from this repository.This paper focuses on the use of multi-detector row dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) in the evaluation of postmortal examinations. The use of dual energy moves postmortem CT to an entirely new dimension of diagnostic sensitivity where contrast in the image is not merely limited to X-ray attenuation differences, but may include elements of functional and tissue characterization. This additional information may be used to improve the benefit postmortem imaging can provide to supplement and simplify the conventional autopsy.
