1 ( ) Comparison of adsorbed skin dose received by patients in cone beam computed tomography, spiral and conventional computed tomography scanninng Ghazi Khanlou Sani K 1, Eskandarlou A 2, Rostampour N 3, Rahimi A 3 1- MSc. in Medical Physics, Department of Radiology, School of Paramedicine, Hamedan University of Medical Sciences 2- Assistant Professor, Department of Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology, School of Dentistry, Hamedan University of Medical Sciences 3- MSc. in Medical Physics, Department of Medical Physics, School of Medicine, Hamedan University of Medical Sciences Background and Aims: The evaluation of absorbed dose received by patients could give useful information for radiation risk estimation. This study was performed to compare the entrance skin dose received by patients in cone beam computed tomography (), conventional and spiral computed tomography (CT). Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 81 calibrated TLD chips were used. the TLD chips were placed on facial, thyroid and end of sternum skin surface in patients referred for CT of the paranasal sinuses (3 TLD chips for each area) to estimate the absorbed dose received by central part of radiation field, thyroid and out of field areas, respectively. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey tests. Results: The dose delivered to the center of irradiated field was about 0.79±0.09 mgy in technique compared with 16.31±3.71 and 18.84±4.12 mgy for spiral and conventional CT, respectively. The received dose by the out of field areas was about 54 percent of central area dose. There was statistical significant relationship between the imaging modalities and absorbed dose received by patients (P=0.016). The least absorbed dose was for and the greatest dose was for conventional CT imaging technique. Conclusion: The dose delivered to central area of irradiated field in conventional and spiral CT imaging modalities was about 24 times greater than of that in. Also, the highest received dose was for central area of radiated field and the lowest dose was for the out of field areas.
