Box chart of quantitative dual-layer spectral CT parameters from metastatic, non-metastatic and contralateral axillary lymph nodes. Metastatic lymph nodes had significantly different iodine density, spectral slope, Z effective, Δ contrast enhancement, and conventional CT HU compared to both non-metastatic ipsilateral and contralateral lymph nodes as denoted by the asterisk.
