Figure 4 A 17-month-old girl with possible pulmonary sequestration in the case of known congenital pulmonary airway malformation. A: Comparison of contrast between the standard reconstruction at 90 kV; B: The monoenergetic reconstruction at 60 kV. The monoenergetic images show an increase in the HU value of the contrast agent, which contributes to better detectability of vascular structures. Copyright ©Siemens Healthineers AG 2024.
