TL;DRAbstract

Use of a single advanced image-based virtual monoenergetic reconstruction at 55 keV in pancreatic DECT showed improved objective image quality and reader preference compared to routine images. As this image reconstruction can be incorporated into the scan protocol, this technique should be considered for routine clinical use.
