Pragmatic approaches to reducing radiation dose in brain computed tomography scan using scan parameter modification
Background: High radiation dose of patients has become a concern in the computed tomography (CT) examinations. The aim of this study is to guide the radiology technician in modifying or optimizing the underlying parameters of the CT scan to reduce the patient radiation dose and produce an acceptable...
