BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Liver iron and fat are often co-deposited, synergistically aggravating the progression of chronic liver disease. Accurate determination of liver iron and fat content is helpful for patient management. To assess the accuracy of hepatic iron/fat decomposition using dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) for simultaneously quantifying hepatic iron and fat when both are present.
METHODS METHODS
Sixty-eight New Zealand rabbits on a high-fat/cholesterol diet plus iron injections were used to establish a model of coexisting hepatic iron/fat. Abdominal imaging was performed using dual-source DECT. The iron and fat fractions (Iron-

CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Our DECT-based iron/fat decomposition algorithm accurately measured hepatic iron and fat when both were present in a rabbit model. Hepatic fat may be underestimated when there is massive iron overload.
