Verification of the Dose Reduction Effect via Diluted Injection in Dual-Energy Computed Tomography Using a Human Blood Flow Phantom

<div>The maximum CT number per dilution rate. The maximum CT number per each keV resulted in a higher number if the diluted ratio was higher. If keV was lower, the maximum CT number was higher. Finally, for 100% contrast (0% saline) at 40 kV, the CT number reached 1000 HU.</div>
