Patient-specific Effective Dose Estimation from Dose–Length Product in Lung Computed Tomography Using Monte Carlo Simulation

Background: Computed tomography (CT) imaging has a large portion in the dose of patients from radiological procedures; therefore, accurate calculation of radiation risk estimation in this modality is inevitable. In this study, a method for determining the patient-specific effective dose using the do...
