Description
The input surface dose received in the sternal area by patients undergoing coronary CT angiography was measured with thermoluminescent detectors. The mean levels were 34.35 ± 18.62 mGy for males and 33.26 ± 16.35 mGy for females (p > 0.05). The observed radiation doses were compared with the data stored in the hospital PACS archive. (orig.)
