Description
The diagnostic reference level (DRL) is an increasingly important quantity used for optimization of radiation dose to both adult and pediatric patients undergoing CT scans. This CEL discusses the background behinds CT dose, the scientific foundations for calculation of CT dose and DRL, CT dose optimization and consideration of cancer risk with respect to CT dose.
