OBJECTIVES: Aim of this study was to assess the value of virtual non-contrast (VNC) reconstructions in differentiating between adrenal adenomas and metastases on a photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Patients with adrenal masses and contrast-enhanced CT scans in portal venous phase were included. Image reconstructions were performed, including conventional VNC (VNCConv ) and PureCalcium VNC (VNCPC ), as well as virtual monochromatic images (VMI, 40-90 keV) and iodine maps...
