Abstract:
Computed tomography (CT) is one of the most widely used diagnostic imaging modalities and currently represents the leading source of radiation exposure in the general population. Consequently, regulatory measures have been introduced to reduce unnecessary patient irradiation. To align with these requirements and to promote consistency across institutions in Italy-ensuring comparable radiation exposure for the same type of examination-the Italian Society of Medical and Interventional Radiology (SIRM), through its dedicated subcommittee, has developed this position paper.
