Abstract

The variations in radiation exposure levels and dose management protocols across hospitals pose challenges in optimizing CT radiation doses. Therefore, is it of interest to compares the CT radiation dose parameters, including Dose Length Product (DLP) and Computed Tomography Dose Index (CTDI), across two prominent tertiary care hospitals in the Delhi NCR region. The research aims to evaluate differences in radiation exposure levels, highlighting the variations in dose management protocols. Data was collected from routine CT scans to determine the dose levels at each hospital. This study contributes to the understanding of radiation exposure management by comparing CT radiation dose parameters across two major hospitals in Delhi NCR, offering insights into dose optimization practices.
