Emergency unenhanced multi-slice computed tomography in suspected urinary calculi—with dose reduction method (care dose 4D)
Objectives: To assess urinary calculi and the secondary signs of obstruction, in patients referred from the accident and emergency department, by unenhanced computed tomography examination and to review the radiation dose the patients received with the use of automatic dose modulation technique, car...
