Comparison of pediatric lens scattered dose measurements between axial 40-mm and helical 160-mm detector width computed tomography scan modes
Pediatric Radiology(2024)
摘要
Reports comparing field lens doses between helical scans with a 40-mm detector width and axial scans with a 160-mm detector width using different computed tomography (CT) scanners are currently scarce. To compare scatter doses for lenses between a helical scan with a 40-mm detector width and an axial scan with a 160-mm detector width when using different CT scanners in the context of pediatric chest examinations. Two different CT machines were used: Revolution CT (GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI) with a 256-row, 0.625-mm multidetector; and Aquilion ONE GENESIS Edition (Canon Medical Systems, Otawara, Japan) with a 320-row, 0.5-mm multidetector. Three pediatric anthropomorphic phantoms were used, with optically stimulated luminescence dosimeters (OSLDs) placed on the left and right lenses. The scatter dose values measured by the OSLDs were compared between a helical scan with a 40-mm detector width and an axial scan with a 160-mm detector width during pediatric chest CT examinations. Median equivalent doses for the helical and axial scans were 0.12 and 0.12 mSv/mGy for the newborn, 0.17 and 0.16 mSv/mGy for the 1-year-old, and 0.18 and 0.15 mSv/mGy for the 5-year-old, respectively, when using the Revolution CT. With the Revolution CT, no significant differences were observed in the scatter doses between helical and axial scans in the newborn and 1-year-old phantoms. However, the lens scatter dose for the helical scan was approximately 20–35
