Diagnostic reference level for adult pelvic examination in several hospitals of Taif and Kharaj city, Saudi Arabia

Hamid Osman et al.

Summary: The study estimated the entrance surface air kerma (ESAK) for adult patients undergoing conventional radiography of Anteroposterior pelvis examination and established a local diagnostic reference level (DRL). The study found a high correlation between BMI and ESAK, and that conventional digital radiography can reduce radiation exposure in pelvic imaging.

Eray Atli et al.

Summary: This study aimed to obtain typical values for head, neck, chest, and abdominal CT examinations from routine patients in 2018, and to review the data with national and international diagnostic reference levels. The results indicate a need for optimization of head CT examinations based on overall radiation dose parameters obtained in the study.
