The retrospective ECG-gated CCTA scans were performed on SDCT (IQon Spectral CT, Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands). A bolus of 60–80 mL non-ionic contrast media (iobitridol; 350 mg iodine/ml, Guerbet, Roissy, France) was injected into the median cubital vein at a flow rate of 4–5 mL/s via a high-pressure injector with binocular tube (Ulrich, Germany), followed by 30 mL of saline flush. When the descending aorta reached the 110HU threshold, the CCTA scan was triggered automatically. The scan protocol was as follows: 120kVp tube voltage, automatic tube current modulation, 0.9 mm slice thickness and slice interval, 64 × 0.625 mm detector collimation, 270 ms tube rotation time, and 512 × 512 matrix. The original data were reconstructed, including both conventional images (CIs) and virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) from 40 keV to 100 keV with a 10 keV interval. All data were transferred to the post-processing workstation (IntelliSpace Portal Vision 10, Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands).

All scans were performed on a 64-slice SDCT scanner (IQon Spectral CT, Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands). Iodine contrast agent was injected (350 mg/mL, 0.8 mL/kg; flow rate 4–5 mL/s, varying according to the vascular status of the patient). A total of 40 mL saline was used before and after the injection of the iodine contrast agent. A retrospective electrocardiogram-gated exam was adopted. The CCTA scan was triggered automatically when the descending aorta reached the 110 HU threshold. All scans were performed according to the following protocol: tube voltage 120 kVp, automatic tube current modulation, slice thickness 0.9 mm, slice interval 0.9 mm, detector collimation 64×0.625 mm, tube rotation time 270 ms, and matrix 512×512. The original data were reconstructed as follows: conventional image, and VMI from 40 to 100 keV with a 10 keV interval. All data were transferred to the post-processing workstation (IntelliSpace Portal vision 10, Philips Healthcare).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
