Presentation of Organ Dose and Effective Dose Conversion Factors in Dual-Energy Computed Tomography: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Background: The same conversion factors (k-factors) of Single CT (SECT) are applied to estimate the Effective Dose (ED) in Dual Energy Computed Tomography (DECT). However, k-factors for different organs need independently validating for DECT, due to the different conditions in DECT.Objective: This s...
