Computational models employed for dose assessment in diagnostic radiology.
Radiat. Prot. Dosim. 49, 339-344 (1993)
Optimisation in diagnostic radiology means achieving a reasonable compromise between high image quality and low dose to the patient. A convenient method to evaluate the influence of an examination technique on patient dose is the calculation of organ doses using radiation transport codes together with computational human models. A brief history of the computational models is given and the differences between mathematical and tomographic models are described. Dose calculations performed in nuclear medicine and diagnostic radiology are briefly summarised; the limitations of calculated organ doses with respect to accuracy and applicability to individual situations are discussed. Finally, the possible use of dose calculations for optimisation procedures in diagnostic radiology, due to quantification of the effects of measures aimed at dose reduction or limitation on single organ doses, is illustrated.
