Assessment Of Radiation Dose During CT Brain

Abstract

The purpose of this study to assessment radiation dose of CT scanner on

brain by calculate effective dose , then to confirm is there any difference

between effective dose of male brain and female brain according to

differences at anatomical structure of male brain and female brain , and to

determine typical parameter that help to reduce overdose .

This study performed in Modern Medical Center , the study showed

amount of average effective dose (1.26756002 mSv ± 0.2 mSv ) and it's

not equal or above than standard effective dose of brain (2 mSv) that

recommended by ICRP . Also there is no any difference between

effective dose of male brain and female brain according to differences at

anatomical structure of brain .The typical parameter of (Kvp and mAs ) is

(120 Kvp) and (60 mAs -100 mAs) for adult and pediatric
