Experience of Using Dual-Energy Computed Tomography in Patient With Urolithiasis

Abstract

We presented a clinical case of dual-energy computed tomography in a patient with urolithiasis. Was performed a complex evaluation of the specific parameters obtained in dual-energy computed tomography: dual-energy ratio, dual-energy difference, dual-energy index, Z effective and the chemical composition of the urinary stone in a patient in vivo to determine the tactics of surgical treatment and metaphylaxis.
