Proposed Diagnostic Reference Levels for Frequently Performed Paediatric Radiographic Examinations

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Paediatric diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) are weight‐stratified dose levels for typical medical imaging examinations for broadly defined types of equipment. The 75th percentiles of the FRLs across the nine X‐ray units from five centres in Australia were calculated as the proposed Local DRLs (LDRLs).
