Estimation of Organ and Effective Dose in Multislice CT Examination

The rapid acquisition of multislice CT scanners for diagnostic imaging in Tanzania had created the need to estimate the organ and effective doses committed to patients undergoing multislice CT examinations. The organ and effective doses were estimated using the CT-expo software by entering patients’ data (age and sex), scan parameters, scanner types and models, obtained from the examination forms of 106 patients that underwent various routine examinations. The multiclice CT examinations were observed to deliver comparable or less organ and effective doses than those obtained from single slice CT examinations.
