The role of topogram views on dose indices and image quality in thorax and abdomen-pelvis CT scan
This study was designed to investigate the effect of the different topograms (AP and dual AP/Lateral) on patient dose indices and image quality in thorax and abdomen-pelvis CT. Size-specific dose estimation (SSDE), volumetric CT dose index (CTDIvol), milliampere seconds (mAs), effective dose, as well as signal to noise ratio (SNR) and contrast to noise ratio (CNR) of 60 thorax and 60 abdomen-pelvis CT scans were analyzed. In thorax CT, SSDE, mAs, CTDIvol and effective dose were significantly reduced by using dual topograms (p < 0.05) but not significantly reduced in abdominal-pelvic scans (p > 0.05). There was no significant difference between CNR parameter in the two groups for thorax CT (p > 0.05) and SNR parameter in abdomen-pelvic CT (p < 0.05) and all images were diagnostically acceptable. The use of two topograms in thorax CT is an efficient approach to reduce dose indices without decreasing the image quality.

期刊介绍:
Radioprotection publishes articles on all aspects of radiological protection, including non-ionising as well as ionising radiations. Fields of interest range from research, development and theory to operational matters, education and training. The very wide spectrum of its topics includes (theoretical and practical aspects): dosimetry, instrument development, specialized measuring techniques, epidemiology, biological effects (in vivo and in vitro) and risk and environmental impact assessments.
