A 71-year-old colon cancer man without postoperative complications. Axial conventional CT image (a), MonoE40keV-VP (b), iodine density (IoD) (c), and Z effective (Z-eff) atomic number images (d) in the venous phase (VP) show a mass (circular ROI) in the sigmoid colon, and their values in tumor ROI are respectively 79.2 HU, 129.8 HU, 0.89 mg/mL, and 7.81. The slope of spectral curve is 1.33 in the arterial phase (AP) (e). The slope of spectral curve is 1.68 in the VP (f)
