An automatic exposure control mechanism that is based on real-time anatomy-dependent tube current modulation delivers good image quality with a significantly reduced radiation dose.

Low-dose MDCT with tube current modulation can be used as standard procedure in evaluation for urolithiasis, even in overweight and obese patients.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:The purpose of this work was to evaluate the possible use of low-dose multidetector CT (MDCT) in cervical clearance of patients with blunt trauma.

With modern MDCT technology, low-dose CT of the sinuses in children can yield diagnostic image quality using an effective dose comparable to that used for standard radiography.
