Abstract:
The early detection and qualitative diagnosis of salivary gland tumors are very important, which is helpful for clinical intervention and treatment in time to delay or stop the progression of the disease. At present, the multi-parameter quantitative analysis of dual-energy CT, such as virtual monochromatic image (VMI), base material image, spectrum curve and effective atomic number have been gradually applied to evaluate salivary gland tumors, providing many quantitative indexes for the characterization, staging and classification of salivary gland diseases. This article reviews the research progress of various post-processing parameters of dual-energy CT in the evaluation of salivary gland tumors.
