Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
It is known that multislice CT involves an increased radiation exposure for patients, while dual-energy CT uses a low-dose acquisition protocol and VEO reconstruction software.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of low-dose dual energy CT in the pre-surgical planning of patients with progression of scoliosis who are candidated for vertebral arthrodesis.
