However, occult hip fractures are often missed, leading to treatment delays. Dual-energy computed tomography allows visualization of bone marrow edema and bone contusions, which are challenging to detect using conventional computed tomography. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of dual-energy computed tomography in diagnosing occult hip fractures.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Eighteen dual-energy computed tomography scans obtained between May 2018 and March 2024 were analyzed. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed in all cases. A trained musculoskeletal radiologist interpreted the dual-energy computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans, which were then reviewed by two senior orthopedic surgeons. The confirmed diagnoses included 14 femoral trochanteric fractures and 4 femoral neck fractures. Four junior orthopedic surgeons independently reviewed the dual-energy computed tomography scans only and conducted diagnostic examinations. Patients were subsequently categorized into two groups: those with unanimous diagnostic agreement (unanimity group) and those with discrepancies (objection group).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      For femoral trochanteric fractures, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and Cohen\u2019s kappa coefficient were 94%, 81%, 0.91, and 0.75, respectively. For femoral neck fractures, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and Cohen\u2019s kappa coefficient were 68%, 96%, 0.90, and 0.69, respectively.
