PURPOSE: Determination of the radiation doses in spiral CT of the paranasal sinuses using a variety of mAs values and scan protocols.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: CT examinations of the paranasal sinuses were performed using an Alderson-Rando phantom. Radiation dose was determined by LiF-TLD at the level of high risk organs in the head and neck region for combinations of different scan parameters (2/3, 3/3, 3/4 mm) and decreasing charges (200, 150, 100, 50, 25 mAs) on a spiral CT. Additional measurements were performed on three other CT scanners using the 2/3 mm protocol at 50 mAs, and a single slice technique (5/5 mm) on one scanner.
RESULTS: The lowest dose values found were 1.88 mGy for the eye lenses, 1.35 mGy for the parotid gland, 0.03 mGy for the thyroid gland and 0.1 mGy for the medulla oblongata using 2 mm collimation and 3 mm table feed at 25 mAs. Maximal dose values resulted using the 3/3 mm protocol at 200 mAs (31.00 mGy for the eye lense, 0.65 mGy for the thyroid gland). There were no significant differences found between the different CT scanners.
CONCLUSIONS: Using up-to-date CT scanners, radiation exposure may be reduced by a factor of 15-20 compared to that of conventional CT technique. Thus, the exposure of the eye lens comes to only a thousandth of the value supposedly inducing a cataract, as published by the ICRP.
