Automatic exposure control in pediatric and adult computed tomography examinations: can we estimate organ and effective dose from mean MAS reduction?
: The reduction in the modulated tube current achieved by AEC should not be used to estimate the reduction in the absorbed dose to exposed radiosensitive organs. Moreover, the reduction in the modulated tube current may only be considered as a rough approximation of the corresponding effective dose reduction.
Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio is a strong predictor for overall and cardiovascular mortality in PD patients.
