The increasing demand for CT scans in pediatric patients is mainly due to the high rates of traumatic injuries from car accidents, falls on bicycles, blunt trauma, traumatic brain injury, as well as a significant increase in the incidence of childhood neoplasms, being the CT images used in the diagnostic process. Therefore,

Radiochromic films can detect ionizing radiation coming from different directions and thus obtain maps of absorbed dose profiles in a proportional response to their darkening. Diagnostic radiochromic films allow record doses in milli-gray range using X-ray beams generate in kV. These films have high spatial resolution and a low energy dependence [6,7].
