How do you Calculate/ Estimate Life Expectancy Once you Find Effective Dose using BEIR VII?

I am asked to find effective doses as well as dose in general to find life expectancy of patients who are exposed to ionizable radiation based on their age and gender. I have no clue of where to start or what the formula to find life expectancy from dose (can also be effective dose) is. I would really appreciate any sort of help.

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
