Dual Energy CT was performed to assess the status of amiodarone induced liver damage in 61-year old female patient.

A 61-year-old female patient, suffering from ventricular fibrillation, had been under long-term control with a daily dose of amiodarone. She had an implanted cardiovascular defibrillator and no history of blood transfusions. Dual Energy (DE) CT was performed to assess the status of amiodarone induced liver damage.

The outcomes by Siemens Healthineers customers described herein are based on results that were achieved in the customer’s unique setting. Since there is no “typical” hospital and many variables exist (e.g., hospital size, case mix, level of IT adoption) there can be no guarantee that other customers will achieve the same results.
