Dual Energy CT in daily practice

Clinical Workshop – Onsite Seminar 27.9.2024

Dual Energy CT offers a wide variety of applications and solutions, in particular, enhancing diagnostic accuracy for pathology detection and delineation, as well as more comprehensive qualification of radiological findings. This technology also facilitates dose-reductions in terms of radiation and iodine load and creates greater flexibility in challenging scenarios by improving image quality and contrast. Furthermore, Dual Energy CT allows for several material selective and functional imaging techniques, as opposed to traditional CT.

This one-day classroom training for radiologists and technologists will provide you with profound knowledge and practical skills in using the diagnostic possibilities of Dual Energy CT in your daily clinical routine. While lead innovators in CT technology will introduce you to the physics and background of image acquisition, reconstruction and analysis, clinical presentations will be held by Christian Booz, MD for Dual Energy CT applications in the entire body for various oncologic, vascular and musculoskeletal indications.

Christian Booz, MD is a board-certified radiologist and consultant at the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology of the University Hospital Frankfurt, Germany. Since 2020 he is the head of CT research and responsible for current CT innovations at Frankfurt. He has been using Dual Energy CT head-to-toe for many years in clinical routine with a main focus on emergency and musculoskeletal imaging. Dr. Booz is author of numerous research papers and review articles on Dual Energy CT including publications in the journals Radiology and investigative Radiology. He received several research prizes by the Radiological Society of North America and the German Society of Radiology and participated in many radiological congresses worldwide. Dr. Booz has shared his knowledge in Dual Energy CT in specific online tutorials and contributed to and participated in several Dual Energy CT hands-on workshops in Europe.
