Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) is an advancement in the field of CT, where images are acquired at two energies. Materials are identified and quantified based on their attenuation pattern at two different energy beams using various material decomposition algorithms. With its ability to identify and quantify materials such as fat, calcium, iron, and iodine, DECT adds great value to conventional CT and has innumerable applications in body imaging. Continuous technological advances in CT scanner hardware, material decomposition algorithms, and image reconstruction software have led to considerable growth of these applications. Among all organs, the liver is the most widely investigated by DECT, and DECT has shown promising results in most liver applications. In this article, we aim to provide an overview of the role of DECT in the assessment of diffuse liver diseases, mainly the deposition of fat, fibrosis, and iron and review the most relevant literature.
