Deep learning image reconstruction to improve accuracy of iodine quantification and image quality in dual-energy CT of the abdomen: a phantom and clinical study.

• In the phantom study, standard deviations and coefficients of variation in iodine quantification were lower on images with the deep learning image reconstruction algorithm than on those with other algorithms. • In the clinical study, iodine concentrations of measurement location in the upper abdomen were consistent across four reconstruction algorithms, while image noise and variability of iodine concentrations were lower on images with the deep learning image reconstruction algorithm.
