The feasibility of a scanner-independent technique to estimate organ dose from MDCT scans: Using CTDI(vol) to account for differences between scanners

Purpose: Monte Carlo radiation transport techniques have made it possible to accurately estimate the radiation dose to radiosensitive organs in patient models from scans performed with modern multidetector row computed tomography (MDCT) scanners. However, there is considerable variation in organ dos...
