Two-dimensional projection images vs. hepatic vascular phase contrast at different X-ray energies and object-to-detector distances. a Normal liver lobe with X-rays set to 12, 15 and 20 keV. Each energy condition was used at 0.05, 1, 3 and 5 m. Bar = 1 mm. b Quantitative comparison of image contrast at different X-ray energy levels and object-to-detector distances. The best image contrast was obtained using 15 keV and at 1 m
