Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2003 The hazards of computed tomography (CT), in terms of radiation, are being increasingly recognised. CT scanning, despite representing less than 5% of the total number of x ray procedures performed, contributes approximately 40% of the total collective radiation dose to the UK population from all medical x ray examinations.1 It is well known that ...

Low Radiation Dose Calcium Scoring: Evidence and Techniques
Current Cardiovascular Imaging Reports, 2016 Coronary computed tomography (CT) allows for the acquisition of thin slices of the heart and coronary arteries, which can be used to detect and quantify coronary artery calcium (CAC), a marker of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Despite the proven
