Characterization of X-ray Dose in Murine Animals Using microCT a New Low-Dose Detector and nanoDot Dosimeters

摘要

BackgroundDose continues to be an area of concern in preclinical imaging studies, especially for those imaging disease progression in longitudinal studies. To our knowledge, this work is the first to characterize and assess dose from the Inveon CT imaging platform using nanoDot dosimeters. This work is also the first to characterize a new low-dose configuration available for this platform.
