Body physical parameters instead of water equivalent diameter to calculate size-specific dose estimate in adult chest CT [PDF]
This study aimed to investigate body physical parameters as substitutes for water equivalent diameter (Dw) while calculating size-specific dose estimates (SSDEs) during adult chest computed tomography (CT).
