Simple Calculator for Effective Dose in CT (DLP -> Eff Dose): Radiologic Technologist’s guide to Effective Dose (mSv) in CT from Dose Length Product (mGy cm)

Here is a simple calculator to compute the Effective Dose (mSv) from the Dose Length Product (mGy cm) for a CT exam of a single organ. In this article we review how dose measurements are made and how the Effective Dose is related to the Absorbed dose, and the approximation that is used in CT … Continue reading Simple Calculator for Effective Dose in CT (DLP -> Eff Dose): Radiologic Technologist’s guide to Effective Dose (mSv) in CT from Dose Length Product (mGy cm)
