This project focuses on optimizing radiation doses from pediatric computerized tomography (CT) scans to minimize cancer risks in children. It involves a multinational study to assess CT usage patterns, organ doses, and the biological effects of radiation, aiming to establish safer imaging practices for young patients.
Diagnostic radiation represents an indispensable, sometimes life-saving, tool in modern medicine.
However, the growing use of computerized tomography (CT) is a topic of concern in radiological protection, especially for children and adolescents.
Children are generally more sensitive to the carcinogenic effects of ionizing radiation than adults.
In addition, they have a longer life-span to express any effect and, because of their smaller mass, they may receive higher radiation doses from a CT sca…
