内容記述 | The size-specific dose estimates (SSDE) have been recommended to replace the volume computed tomography dose index (CTDIvol) because it takes patient size into account. On the other hand, organ dose is thought to be a more appropriate quantity in the radiation protection field due to its correlation with radiation risk. The web-based computed tomography (CT) dose calculator WAZA-ARIv2 only offers organ doses for adults with four different body shapes and for children with five different ages. Since the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) offers the conversion factors for SSDE and the correlation of SSDE with organ dose has been demonstrated, implementation of the conversion table might improve the accuracy of WAZA-ARIv2. This study aimed to evaluate a body mass index (BMI)-based and age-based correction method for estimation of the organ dose by using a radiophotoluminescence dosimeter (RGD), an anthropomorphic phantom, and the dose calculator WAZA-ARIv2. RGDs were individually calibrated by using an ISOVOLT TITAN-320 x-ray generator. The ratio of the SSDE conversion factors (CFSSDE) was used as the comparison index. For the BMI-based correction method, the ratio of CFSSDE values for the adult phantoms was expected to be 1.065, and the average ratio of the organ doses for the adult phantoms was 1.163 ± 0.169. For the age-based correction method, the ratio of CFSSDE value for 5- and 10-y-old pediatric phantoms was expected to be 0.889, and the ratios of the organ doses were 0.866 ± 0.024 and 0.909 ± 0.047 for the WAZA-ARIv2 dosimetry system and RGD dosimetry system, respectively. In conclusion, both evaluations of the experimental results showed the consistency between WAZA-ARIv2 and the SSDE conversion factor table. Moreover, the importance of taking the measurement position into account when applying the mass attenuation coefficient was demonstrated according to this study. | |||||
