OBJECTIVES Previous studies have shown that split-bolus protocols in virtual non-contrast (VNC) reconstructions of dual-energy computed tomography (DE-CT) significantly decrease radiation dose in patients with urinary stone disease. To evaluate the impact on kidney stone detection rate of stone composition, size, tube voltage, and iodine concentration for VNC reconstructions of DE-CT. METHODS In this prospective study, 16 kidney stones of different sizes (1.2-4.5 mm) and compositions (struvite, cystine, whewellite, brushite) were plac
