Radiation dose obtained from abdominal computed radiography: comparison between supine and prone positions
The aims of this study were to compare the entrance surface dose (ESD) between anteroposterior (AP) supine with posteroanterior (PA) prone projection of computed radiography (CR) abdominal examination and to determine the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and ESD of a patient. AP supine and...
