Estimating Radiation Dose for CT Scans

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

A Toshiba Aquilion model 64 CT scanner was used in this study, with a tube voltage of 120 kV. The effective radiation dose was calculated by inputting data regarding age, sex, and initiation and the end position of CT scan into the computational dosimetry system (WAZA-ARI: http://waza-ari.nirs.go.jp/waza_ari/login/)15 (link)16 (link)17 (link). DLP was calculated according to CT dose index (CTDI), which is set uniformly in the CT scanner, and length (L) of axial CT scanning range of a body as below:

The effective radiation dose was calculated by inputting data regarding age, sex and the initiation and end position of the CT scan into the computational dosimetry system (WAZA-ARI: http://waza-ari.nirs.go.jp/waza_ari/) [15–17] (link). Dose-length products (DLP) were extracted from parameters of the CT scan.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
