- Change in Emergency Department Length of Stay following Routine Adoption of Dual-Energy CT to Differentiate Intracranial Hemorrhage from Calcification
This retrospective study compared ED LOS over a 1-year period before and after implementing automated DECT processing in the evaluation of indeterminate intracranial hyperdensities. The authors showed that with intracranial indeterminate hyperdensities, there was a larger statistically significant difference in pre-DECT versus post-DECT ED LOS. The pre-DECT ED LOS correlated with increased frequency of neurosurgical consultation and repeat head CT.
