Radiation Dose Index Monitoring Systems (RDIMs) can report and track estimated organ and effective doses from CT scans. However, the methods to estimate these doses are not standardized. The purpose of this initial study was to assess the feasibility of perfo...

To quantify the energy-dependent effect of phantom size on monoenergetic HU for high-density materials relevant to contrast and calcification assessment in PCCT.
The increased attention on radiation risks and dose reduction in CT imaging presents opportunities for the presentation and discussion of institutional dose trends and factors contributing to change. The objective of this work is to analyze dose indices (CTDI...
To quantify energy- and size-dependent HU shifts in PCCT monoenergetic imaging and their impact on fat–liver separability.
