Exposures to patient and personnel in computed axial tomography
Authors:PN Shrivastava  SL Lynn  JY Ting
Abstract:Distribution of radiation exposure circumcranially for patients undergoing brain scanning with EMI computed tomographic equipment was measured using thermoluminescent dosimeters. The exposures are found to lie in the range of 1-5 R depending on position relative to tube motion. The maximum exposure of 5 R in CT scanning lies between the estimated exposure of 1.2 R for skull radiography and approximately 10 R for angiographic examination. Measured exposures are reported corresponding to locations of the patients' eyes, thyroid, chest and gonads, and at various locations in the vicinity of the unit.
