The purpose of this study was to compare a dual energy CT (DECT) protocol with 50% reduction of iodinated contrast to a single energy CT (SECT) protocol using standard contrast dose in imaging of the thoracic aorta. DECT with a 50% reduction in iodinated contrast was compared with SECT. For DECT, monoenergetic images at 50, 55, 60, 65, 68, 70, and 74keV were reconstructed with adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASiR-V) of 50% and 80%. Objective image quality parameters included intravascular attenuation (HU), image noise (SD
