Abstract
Dual-source CTCA is associated with radiation doses ranging between 1.3 and 9.0Â mSv, depending on the protocol used. Tailoring of the CTCA protocol to the HR and BMI of the individual patient results in dose reductions of up to 86%, while maintaining a diagnostic image quality of the examination.
