Identification and characterization of patients being exposed to computed-tomography associated radiation-doses above 100 mSv in a real-life setting.

Identification and characterization of patients being exposed to computed-tomography associated radiation-doses above 100 mSv in a real-life setting.

Rationale and objectives: Patients receiving high cumulative effective doses (CED) from recurrent computed tomography (CT) in a real-life setting are not well identified. Evaluation of causes and patient characteristics may help to define individuals potentially at risk of radiation-induced secondar...
