An increasing number of publications and international reports on computed tomography
(CT) have addressed important issues on optimised imaging practice and patient dose. This …

Purpose: To measure radiation doses for computed tomography (CT) of the head, chest, and
abdomen and compare them with the diagnostic reference levels, as part of the International …

Abstract Aim In light of Saudi Arabia's newly introduced national diagnostic reference levels
(DRLs) and their importance as an optimisation tool in computed tomography (CT) …

Computed tomography (CT) has vital role in diagnosis of various pathologies using cross
sectional images. Besides the advantages of CT in pediatric radiology, radiation dose has a …

This study aims to establish local diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) for the most common
computed tomography (CT) examinations in the southern region of Saudi Arabia. Data has …

Computed tomography (CT) scanner under operating conditions has become a major
source of human exposure to diagnostic X-rays. In this context, weighed CT dose index …

Background Medical X-rays are the largest man-made source of public exposure to ionizing
radiation. While the benefits of Computed Tomography (CT) are well known in accurate …

Computed Tomography (CT) examinations have rapidly increased in number over the last
few years due to recent advances such as the spiral, multidetector-row, CT fluoroscopy and …

Diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) are an important optimisation tool, which aid in
identifying abnormally high dose levels. These are currently not available in Saudi Arabia …
