Computed tomography to diagnose coronary artery disease: a reduction in radiation dose increases applicability
O Gosling, G Morgan-Hughes, S Iyengar, W Strain… - Clinical radiology, 2013 - Elsevier
AIM: To assess the effects of dose-saving algorithms on the radiation dose in an established
computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) clinical service. MATERIALS AND
METHODS: A 3 year retrospective analysis of all patients attending for a clinically indicated
CTCA was performed. The effective dose was calculated using a cardiac-specific conversion
factor [0.028 mSv (mGy· cm)− 1]. Patients were stratified by the advent of new scanning
technology and dose-saving protocols. RESULTS: Between September 2007 and August …
