Radiation dose and cancer risk estimates in helical CT for pulmonary tuberculosis infections
The preference for computed tomography (CT) for the clinical assessment of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) infections has increased the concern about the potential risk of cancer in exposed patients. In this study, we investigated the correlation between cancer risk and radiation doses from different C...
