摘要
In the past 3 decades, radiation dose from computed tomography (CT) has contributed to an increase in overall radiation exposure to the population. This increase has caused concerns over harmful effects of radiation dose associated with CT in scientific publications as well as in the lay press. To address these concerns, and reduce radiation dose, several strategies to optimize radiation dose have been developed and assessed, including manual or automatic adjustment of scan parameters. This article describes conventional and contemporary techniques to reduce radiation dose associated with chest CT.
