Body physical parameters instead of water equivalent diameter to calculate size-specific dose estimate in adult chest CT

Xiaoyan Hu,

et al.

Abstract: This study aimed to investigate body physical parameters as substitutes for water equivalent diameter (Dw) while calculating size-specific dose estimates (SSDEs) during adult chest computed tomography (CT). A retrospective analysis was conducted on 776 patients. Patients were divided into training set (542 patients) and validation set (234 patients) according to a ratio of 7:3. The correlations between physical parameters and Dw were analyzed. The differences between SSDE substitutes and… Show more
