Bostani M, McMillan K, Lu P, Kim G, Cody D, Arbique G, et al.
Med Phys . 2017 Jan; 44(4):1500-1513. PMID: 28112399
Purpose: Currently, available Computed Tomography dose metrics are mostly based on fixed tube current Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and/or physical measurements such as the size specific dose estimate (SSDE). In...

Bostani M, Mueller J, McMillan K, Cody D, Cagnon C, DeMarco J, et al.
Med Phys . 2015 Feb; 42(2):1080-6. PMID: 25652520
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of a Monte Carlo simulation-based method for estimating radiation dose from multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) by comparing simulated doses...

Bostani M, McMillan K, Lu P, Kim H, Cagnon C, DeMarco J, et al.
Med Phys . 2015 Feb; 42(2):958-68. PMID: 25652508
Purpose: Task Group 204 introduced effective diameter (ED) as the patient size metric used to correlate size-specific-dose-estimates. However, this size metric fails to account for patient attenuation properties and has...

Bostani M, McMillan K, DeMarco J, Cagnon C, McNitt-Gray M
Med Phys . 2014 Nov; 41(11):112101. PMID: 25370652
Purpose: Monte Carlo (MC) simulation methods have been widely used in patient dosimetry in computed tomography (CT), including estimating patient organ doses. However, most simulation methods have undergone a limited...

Zhang D, Cagnon C, Villablanca J, McCollough C, Cody D, Zankl M, et al.
Med Phys . 2013 Sep; 40(9):091901. PMID: 24007152
Purpose: CT neuroperfusion examinations are capable of delivering high radiation dose to the skin or lens of the eyes of a patient and can possibly cause deterministic radiation injury. The...

Khatonabadi M, Kim H, Lu P, McMillan K, Cagnon C, DeMarco J, et al.
Med Phys . 2013 May; 40(5):051903. PMID: 23635273
Purpose: In AAPM Task Group 204, the size-specific dose estimate (SSDE) was developed by providing size adjustment factors which are applied to the Computed Tomography (CT) standardized dose metric, CTDI(vol)....

Khatonabadi M, Zhang D, Mathieu K, Kim H, Lu P, Cody D, et al.
Med Phys . 2012 Aug; 39(8):5212-28. PMID: 22894446
Purpose: Most methods to estimate patient dose from computed tomography (CT) exams have been developed based on fixed tube current scans. However, in current clinical practice, many CT exams are...

Zhang D, Cagnon C, Villablanca J, McCollough C, Cody D, Stevens D, et al.
AJR Am J Roentgenol . 2012 Jan; 198(2):412-7. PMID: 22268186
Objective: The purpose of our study was to accurately estimate the radiation dose to skin and the eye lens from clinical CT brain perfusion studies, investigate how well scanner output...

Turner A, Zhang D, Khatonabadi M, Zankl M, DeMarco J, Cagnon C, et al.
Med Phys . 2011 Apr; 38(2):820-9. PMID: 21452719
Purpose: A recent work has demonstrated the feasibility of estimating the dose to individual organs from multidetector CT exams using patient-specific, scanner-independent CTDIvol-to-organ-dose conversion coefficients. However, the previous study only...
