After injection into a brachial vein, high contrast media concentration in axillary and subclavian veins can cause artifacts that impair diagnostic utility. This study assessed artifact reduction by artifact-reduction-algorithms (ARA) and virtual-monoenergetic-images (VMI), as well as their combination (VMI ARA ) compared to conventional CT-images (CI).
