Effective dose as a function of the dose–length product (DLP) in (a) adult CT and (b) paediatric CT examinations, where effective doses were evaluated according to International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) 103. Linear regression lines through the origin were calculated separately from dose values obtained in chest CT (solid line) and abdominopelvic CT (dashed line) examinations.
