Summary

This study looks at data from 9,600 adults in France who had a special type of CT scan called spectral CT. The goal is to find safe radiation dose levels for these scans, which are not yet regulated. By analyzing past scans, researchers hope to create guidelines that protect patients from unnecessary radiation.
