Development of optimised protocols for paediatric whole-body computed tomography examinations: a figure-of-merit approach

Abstract Background Whole-body computed tomography (WBCT) technique involves higher radiation doses, resulting in increased stochastic health risks, especially when used for paediatric patients. Hence, protocol optimisation is recommended to maximise its benefit-risk ratio, with several available st...
