Dose indices in dental cone beam CT and correlation with dose-area product. [PDF]
In the 2011 project "Safety and efficacy of a new and emerging dental X-ray modality (SEDENTEXCT)", it was suggested that dose index (DI) and dose-area product (DAP) could be easily measured and used as diagnostic reference levels (DRLs), which would help in the management of radiation doses to patients in optimum exposure settings.

Evaluation of dose-area product of common radiographic examinations towards establishing a preliminary diagnostic reference levels (PDRLs) in Southwestern Nigeria. [PDF]
In Nigeria, a large number of radiographic examinations are conducted yearly for various diagnostic purposes. However, most examinations carried out do not have records of doses received by the patients, and the employed exposure parameters used are not ...

Practical In situ Calibration for Dose-area Product Meter in Interventional Fluoroscopy: Beam-area Method [PDF]
The radiation dosimetry used to measure the ionizing radiation dose delivered during X-ray imaging procedures in planar radiography units, especially in fluoroscopy, is the dose-area product (DAP).

The dose-area product, a new parameter for the dosimetry of narrow photon beams
In the dosimetry of narrow photon fields with side lengths of the order of 1 cm, the traditional parametrisation via the absolute dose on the beam axis and the relative lateral dose distribution has to deal with the difficulty to find sufficiently small detectors and to adjust them accurately on the narrow-beam axis.

A Study of Patientʼs Dose Control at Radiography by Using a Dose Area Product Meter
The International Commission on Radiological Protection recommends adaptation of the diagnostic reference levels (DRLs). Japan DRLs 2020 apply the entrance surface dose (ESD) in radiography. However, it is difficult to measure ESD in the clinical setting.
