Determination of computed tomography dose index: Thorax exploration technique in computed and helical tomography
This paper presents the results obtained for torax studies of both computed axial tomography (CT) and helical tomography (HT) in Mexico using home-made LiF:Mg,Cu,P+PTFE thermoluminescent dosimeters. Results showed that, using similar conditions of irradiation and slice (pitch = 1), do not exist sign...

| Sumario: | This paper presents the results obtained for torax studies of both computed axial tomography (CT) and helical tomography (HT) in Mexico using home-made LiF:Mg,Cu,P+PTFE thermoluminescent dosimeters. Results showed that, using similar conditions of irradiation and slice (pitch = 1), do not exist significant differences between the absorbed dose in the phantom due the two types of tomography scanners used. |
