In-Plane Shielding for CT: Effect of Off-Centering, Automatic Exposure Control and Shield-to-Surface Distance
OBJECTIVE: To assess effects of off-centering, automatic exposure control, and padding on attenuation values, noise, and radiation dose when using in-plane bismuth-based shields for CT scanning. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 30 cm anthropomorphic chest phantom was scanned on a 64-multidetector CT, with t...
