Computed Tomography Automatic Tube Current Modulation: Principle and Factor Affecting Radiation Dose
The Automatic Tube Current Modulation (ATCM) system is now available on individual Computed Tomography (CT) scanner manufacturers. The system modulates the tube current during scans according to patient size, shape and attenuation level. This is for optimizing tube current or patient dose while main...
