Weight-adjusted low-dose contrast media paired with low-radiation dose abdomen CT

The investigators are aiming for a 10% reduction in iodine dosage at 10 kVp reduction in CT radiation. Routine iodine dosing is 0.521 g I/kg at 120 kVp. Therefore, at 90 kVp, a 30% reduction in iodine dosing is expected, which is 0.365 g I/kg. At 100 kVp, the iodine dosage is reduced to 0.417 g I/kg, which is a 20% reduction. The kVp value is automatically selected by the CT device according to the body habitus, which is a clinical routine.
