Establishing Local Diagnostic Reference Levels and Reference Curves for Thorax and Abdomen-Pelvis Paediatric CT Procedures
The set local DRLs for thoracic and the median dose values in abdominal-pelvic CT exams are generally lower than the European DRLs. The derived DRL curves fulfil the same purpose as weight-group DRLs, serving as benchmarks for dose optimization.
