We systematically benchmarked MIRDct, a freely available mesh phantom-based CT dose calculation software, against established reference software (National Cancer Institute Dosimetry System for Computed Tomography [NCICT] and VirtualDose [Virtual Phantoms]) by evaluating agreement between organ-absorbed doses and effective doses across representative scanners, phantoms, and protocols. <b>Methods:</b> Organ absorbed and effective doses were calculated for adult and pediatric phantoms for whole-body (WB) and regional (head, chest, abdomen-pelvis [AP]) CT examinations. MIRDct uses mesh-based International Commission on Radiologic Protection (ICRP) reference phantoms with anatomically realistic organ surfaces, whereas NCICT and VirtualDose use voxel-based ICRP 110 and hybrid Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute/University of Florida phantom models, respectively. For each software, volumetric CT dose index (CTDIvol) values were obtained from the software interface using matched acquisition parameters; in MIRDct, these values were derived from scanner console-reported outputs for the corresponding protocol settings. Organ absorbed doses, dose coefficients, and effective doses were computed across 44 matched scanner-phantom-protocol configurations. Inter-software differences were summarized using medians and interquartile ranges. For regional protocols, organ-absorbed doses were stratified by irradiation category (in-field, partial-in-field, out-of-field), to assess field-dependent variability. <b>Results:</b> CTDIvol values reported by the 3 software tools showed close agreement across matched protocol configurations, with median inter-software differences not exceeding 7%. For in-field organs, dose coefficients from NCICT and VirtualDose generally agreed with MIRDct values within ±25% across adult and pediatric head, chest, AP, and WB protocols, indicating good agreement in the primary beam region. Larger relative deviations occurred for partial-in-field and out-of-field organs, where doses were scatter-dominated; however, absolute organ doses were less than 2 mGy, limiting clinical relevance. Effective dose estimates showed similar concordance: differences were below 25% for all VirtualDose comparisons except head scans and for WB protocols, whereas adult chest and AP protocols differed by up to 40% relative to NCICT. These differences were associated with variations in phantom anatomy and fixed, pre-tabulated CTDIvol reference values in NCICT and VirtualDose, compared with protocol-specific, console-reported CTDIvol inputs in MIRDct. <b>Conclusion:</b> MIRDct provides organ- and effective-dose estimates that are broadly consistent with established CT dosimetry tools, with agreement typically within ±25% for in-field organs and within a few milligray for absolute ","PeriodicalId":94099,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"1491-1502"},"PeriodicalIF":9.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13544246/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148280469","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
