Organ Dose and Attributable Cancer Risk in Lung Cancer Screening with Low-Dose Computed Tomography.
PURPOSE:Lung cancer screening with CT has been recently recommended for decreasing lung cancer mortality. The radiation dose of CT, however, must be kept as low as reasonably achievable for reducing potential stochastic risks from ionizing radiation. The purpose of this study was to calculate indivi...
