Abstract
We describe a case of lumbar stenosis in which retrospective spectral analysis using dual-layer spectral detector computed tomography (CT) had the ability to expand the evaluable region in the spinal canal. Spinal canal stenosis is a common condition whose symptoms (such as lower back and leg pain with walking) deteriorate the quality of life. Generally, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT myelography are performed to diagnose canal stenosis. Dual-layer spectral detector CT can yield virtual monochromatic imaging and retrospective on-demand spectral analysis without a prescan setting. Spectral analysis could expand the evaluable region in the spinal canal for increasing the contrast enhancement in the canal.
