Dosis de radiación en tomografía computarizada: observación en tres hospitales de la Región de Valparaíso, Chile
Ionizing radiation doses in computed tomography (CT) have the potential to generate deleterious effects. The issue is not trivial and the question remains as to how the dose management is managed, specifically, in Chile. The objective of this work is to record and synthesize doses to patient undergoing CT examination in three institutions in the Valparaíso Region. A prospective descriptive study was carried out for 3 months, including examinations of the head, thorax and pelvis. DICOM files were collected to extract relevant variable values. Dose distributions are different between hospitals, as they have different equipment installed and different acquisition protocols. The median CTDI (Computed Tomography Dose Index) observed are in general within the international range
