Managing Patient Radiation Dose in CT 2026 - SCORM

This video program is designed for radiology and nuclear medicine professionals who work with Computed Tomography. Parameters which affect patient radiation dose in CT are discussed along with techniques and strategies for minimizing the patient radiation dose. Metrics for measuring exposure and estimating dose are explained along with methods for radiation dose monitoring, tracking and reporting. Objectives Describe the impact of the development of CT with regard to neuroimaging List the technical parameters which affect CT dose Describe the effect of CT dose on CT image quality Define stochastic and deterministic effects Describe several methods for reducing CT radiation dose Define the various measures of CT radiation dose Describe how software programs can be utilized in CT dose monitoring, tracking and reporting
