“…Despite DECT existing since the 1970s, use was limited due to limitation in acquisition times until recent advances in CT technology. DECT has been utilized in cardiothoracic, vascular, musculoskeletal, and neuro imaging (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14). Abdominal applications have been utilized with a predominance on the solid organs, neoplasm, and inflammatory bowel disease (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24).…”

Traumatic bowel and mesenteric injuries (TBMI) have significant morbidity and mortality. The physical examination is often limited and sometimes not feasible in the trauma patient. Multidetector CT (MDCT) detection of TBMI is challenging and can be life-saving. Dual-energy CT (DECT) utilizes iodine overlay, monoenergetic imaging, and metal artifact reduction to enhance the conspicuity of TBMI. DECT may improve the conspicuity of TBMI leading to increased diagnostic accuracy and confidence. The aim of the article is to review the state of the art and applications of DECT in bowel trauma.
