Study finds ultralow-dose CTC equivalent to normal-dose scans
By Eric Barnes
Wednesday, December 3 | 11:50 a.m.-12:00 p.m. | SSK08-09 | Room E351The need for dose reduction is real in CT colonography (CTC), an exam that could be repeated several times between ages 50 and 80 years, when colorectal cancer screening is recommended. Fortunately, the University of Rome La Sapienza is on the case, working to reduce the dose for CTC to sub-mSv levels consistently.
