Radiation dose reduction in thoracic and abdomen–pelvic CT using tube current modulation: a phantom study

This phantom study was designed to compare the radiation dose in thoracic and abdomen–pelvic CT scans with and without use of tube current modulation (TCM). Effective dose (ED) and size‐specific dose estimation (SSDE) were calculated with the absorbed doses measured at selective radiosensitive organ...
