Fig. 5 — Comparison of lung-dose results. Plot of CTDI_vol-normalized lung-dose relationship with chest diameter as compared with data from Tian et al. [24] (dashed line) for chest examination. b Plot of exponential fit of CTDI_vol-normalized lung dose to chest diameter as compared to data from Li et al.’s [25] protocol c for chest examination (120 kVp, large bowtie filter, pitch 1.375, 40-mm collimation) (dashed line). Data normalized to dose-length product from 32-cm-diameter phantom
