“…So the value of EI received by the IR will be smaller. This condition also supports research conducted by Arifiansyah (2018), which states that a person's weight and height will affect the amount of EI value received by the IR (Indonesia, 2009;Strauss & Rae, 2012).…”

The image quality factor is not merely a matter of whether the image is repeated or not, but also has a wide range of information and also has to maintain the protection method for the patient is the reception of the dose due to radiographic action. So it is necessary to monitor the patient's dose using the EI value. The factors that determine the EI value are the exposure factor and the thickness of the object or BMI (Body Mass Index). Exposure factors (kV and mAs) are factors that have been commonly used as patient dose monitoring, where the tube voltage is a component that changes more often with a relatively constant tube current. The study used data on patients with Thoracic examination at the age of 20-65 years which were then categorized into BMI. The analysis was carried out on the EI value contained in the radiographic image. The results showed that BMI in the normal, Light Grade Fat (LGF), Heavy Grade Fat (HGF) categories, respectively, the EI values were 1562, 1679, and 1955 for the female sex, and 1266, 1600, and 1821 for the male gender. Significantly (P?0.05) the EI value showed difference between female and male sexes.

“…This research aims to determine the effective dose of the patient's organs for abdominal CT-Scan examination. Furthermore, this research also determines the potential risk of cancer that is received by the patient every time he performs an abdominal examination with CT-Scan modalities (Sofiana, 2013;Strauss & Rae, 2012).…”

Research has been carried out on the Potential Risk of Cancer in Body Organs Due to Abdomen CT Scan Radiation. The use of a CT-Scan tool that emits radiation has the potential to have quite a serious impact. An abdominal CT-Scan is one part of the examination that is often done because in that section many organs are very vital. The organs found in the abdomen include the liver, spleen, stomach, intestines, kidneys, gonads, pancreas, bladder, and ureters. The study used data on abdominal CT-Scan patients at Sanglah Hospital Denpasar, in the age range from 41 years to 56 years without distinguishing gender. From the CT-Scan data, the CTDIVol and DLP values ??of each patient can be taken. Furthermore, it is analyzed to determine the patient's effective dose so that the percentage of cancer risk in each of these organs can be known. The results showed that the potential risk of cancer for critical organs such as the bladder, stomach, and gonads, was 0.218 %, 0.262 %, and 0.390 % respectively. The most at risk for potential cancer occurs in the gonads.

“…Following BAPETEN Regulation no. 1211/K/V/2021, the Indonesian Diagnostic Reference Level has been set, hereinafter referred to as I-DRL, for the modalities of X-ray CT Scan and General Radiography (Silvia et al, 2013;Strauss & Rae, 2012). For chest contrast, CT Scan examination, the I-DRL value at CTDIVol was 16.00 mGy and DLP was 810.00 mGy.cm.…”

Currently, in the world of medicine, the use of medical devices is very important. Along with the development of technology, the need for imaging in radio diagnostics is getting higher. This can be seen from the increasing trend of using medical devices by experts that are tailored to the needs of patients. The progress of radiological examination is growing rapidly with the use of radiation sources, one of which is by using a CT-Scan (Computed Tomography Scanning). The use of CT-Scans must be monitored to ensure the protection and safety of workers, patients, and the public. Protection requirements that must be met in the use of radiation are optimization of radiation protection and safety. The optimization of radiation protection is determined from the diagnostic guide level or the Indonesian Diagnostic Reference Level (I-DRL). The data used in this study is a chest contrast examination with the category of adults (15 years and over). From the CT-Scan irradiation, the CTDIVol and DLP values ??were determined in the 3rd quartile (Q3=75 percentile).
