A 63-year-old man with history of HCC and alcoholic liver disease in the RPP group. The participant’s weight was 87 kg, and his body mass index was 29.4 kg/m2. The amount of iodine administered was 297.9 mg/kg. Despite the low iodine load, both the arterial (a) and portal venous phase (b) of the 50-keV images, as well as the arterial (c) and portal venous phase (d) of the DL-based iodine-boosting reconstructed images, demonstrated sufficient image contrast and acceptable image quality. HCC = hepatocellular carcinoma, RPP = renal protection protocol, DL = deep learning
