A Comparison of Effective doses for the 16, 64, and 128-slice Computed Tomography Scanners: A First Health Cluster Study in Riyadh

A Comparison of Effective doses for the 16, 64, and 128-slice Computed Tomography Scanners: A First Health Cluster Study in Riyadh

Objective: This study aimed to compare the effective doses among 16, 64, and 128-slice computed tomography (CT) scanners. Several strategies have been implemented to reduce the radiation dose from CT, including a low tube voltage, a high pitch protocol, automatic tube current modulation, and iterati...
