The presence of contrast agent increases organ radiation dose in contrast-enhanced CT
OBJECTIVES: Routine dosimetry calculations do not account for the presence of iodine in organs and tissues during CT acquisition. This study aims to investigate the impact of contrast agent (CA) on radiation dose. METHODS: First, relation between absorbed radiation dose and iodine concentrations was...
