      Solbak, Marian S.; Henning, Mette Karen; England, Andrew; Martinsen, Anne Catrine Trægde; Aaløkken, Trond M; Johansen, Safora (European Radiology Experimental;4, Article number: 57 (2020), Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-11)
      Background: We investigated the impact of varying contrast medium (CM) densities and x-ray tube potentials on contrast enhancement (CE), image quality and radiation dose in thoracic computed tomography (CT) using two ...
    • Strategies for calculating contrast media dose for chest CT 

      Johansen, Safora; Henning, Mette Karen; Gunn, Catherine; Arenas-Jiménez, Juan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Background Total body weight (TBW) is a frequently used contrast media (CM) strategy for dose calculation in enhanced CT, yet it is suboptimal as it lacks consideration of patient characteristics, such as body fat percentage ...
