“…This difference shows an ascending trend in all examinations (Table 4). Also, in the present study, the DRL result is closer to the NDRL obtained for CTDI vol with QC than the DC and Di methods used in NDRL study conducted by Najafi et al [18], and Deevband et al [22] studies, respectively. In another study, besides the QC method, the dual purpose quality control method was used for DRL calculation of five CT scanners by changing the QC method in Shiraz, but the centers were not identified [23].…”

“…The sinus examination is not included in the study which was conducted by Kanal et al [20]. A comparison of DRL based on CTDI vol and DLP in the present study with the QC and MQC methods performed by Deevband et al [22], based on the protocols in the four common CT scan examinations with 120 devices in Iran (400 patients) using Di method, revealed the underestimation of the dose indices. The difference between the third quartile of DRL based on CTDI vol in this study and the four head, sinus, chest, and abdomen/pelvis examinations was 13.7%, 50%, 40%, and 42.1%, respectively (Table 5).…”
