摘要：

Dual energy CT (DECT) has evolved into a commonly applied imaging technique in clinical routine due to its unique post-processing opportunities for improved evaluation of all body areas. Reconstruction of virtual monoenergetic imaging (VMI) series has shown beneficial effects for both non-contrast and contrast-enhanced DECT due to the flexibility to calculate low-keV VMI reconstructions to increase contrast and iodine attenuation, or to compute high-keV VMI reconstructions to reduce beam-hardening artefacts. The goal of this review article is to explain the technical background of VMI and noise-optimized VMI+ algorithms and to give an overview of useful clinical applications of the VMI technique in DECT of various body regions.
