Abstract
The radiation dose for CTC can be reduced by 40% and 70% below commonly employed doses for overweight and normal BMI patients, respectively, by using a BMI-adjusted dose reduction approach. Conspicuity scores dropped in obese patients with reduced dose suggesting that standard accepted doses should be utilized in that group.
