Abstract

Abstract Equivalent doses for the eye lenses, thyroid, and mammary glands were measured and compared between one adult and three pediatric anthropomorphic phantoms during chest computed tomography (CT) using 40 mm volume helical scan on the Aquilion ONE GENESIS Edition CT equipment. Placing an optically stimulated luminescence dosemeter (OSLD) on the eye lenses, thyroid, and mammary gland, we measured and compared the equivalent dose of OSLD among different phantoms during chest CT using a helical scan. Compared with adults, the equivalent doses to the eye lens, thyroid, and mammary glands were ~81%, 77%, and 63% lower in newborns, 1-year-olds, and 5-year-olds using comparable image noise during chest CT.
