Diagnostic reference levels for chest computed tomography in children as a function of patient size

BACKGROUND: Radiation exposures from computed tomography (CT) in children are inadequately studied. Diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) can help optimise radiation doses. OBJECTIVE: To determine local DRLs for paediatric chest CT performed mainly on modern dual-source, multi-slice CT scanners as a fu...
