Unnecessary CT that is concerning me

Hi, my enquire is about the amount of mSv that I received during my scan of a pulmonary angiogram CT with contrast iodine. I was wondering about the total mSv that my body received and the amount that was absorbed by my breast and lungs. Does Total DLP equate to mSv that I received? I have BMI of 19 (52kg and 165cm height). Image says total exam DLP mGy - cm as 8.72 and CDTI vol mGy as 17.43. During the examination, I accidentally moved and put my left arm also into the machine which I am guessing will also increase the mSv that I received? I am a 23 year old female and the amount of radiation that I have received is really concerning me.

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/
