Evaluation of Local Diagnostic Reference Levels for Paediatric and Adult Patients Undergoing Head Computed Tomography Examination in Amhara Regional States, Ethiopia [PDF]
Introduction: During computed tomography examinations variation of dose for pediatric and adults has been increasing widely, even when automated exposure control is used. Hence, the objective of this study was to assess the computed tomography head local

Computed Dosimeter Dose Index on a 16-Slice Computed Tomography Scanner
A computed tomography dose index can be used to quantify the radiation dose received during a CT scan and it is an indicator of the radiation dose to the polymetaylenmetaAcrylate (PMMA) standardized phantom. The objective of this study was 2-fold.

Flat-detector computed tomography (FD-CT) [PDF]
Flat-panel detectors or, synonymously, flat detectors (FDs) have been developed for use in radiography and fluoroscopy with the defined goal to replace standard X-ray film, film-screen combinations and image intensifiers by an advanced sensor system.

Computed Tomography (CT) Standards [PDF]
There is currently no standardized method to check the measurement capabilities of computed tomography (CT) systems within industry. The current method to determine the functionality of CT systems is by use of a test phantom to represent the actual part to be tested.
