ANDISCO, D; BLANCO, S e BUZZI, A.E. Dosimetría en tomografía computada. Rev. argent. radiol. [online]. 2014, vol.78, n.3, pp.156-160. ISSN 1852-9992. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.rard.2014.07.004.
The amount of computed tomography (CT) studies that are performed each year in the world is growing exponentially mainly due to the incorporation of multislice CT that allows studies in a few seconds. But, despite the benefit received by patients with the diagnosis, radiation dose is a concern in the professional community and it has be reduced as much as reasonably possible. This article describes the main dosimetric CT units used in order to work with this practice easily, using the values that provide modern equipment and internationally known reference levels.
