Table 7. Mean radiation exposure of EOS compared to other techniques [16].

Technique Full spine frontal Full spine lateral
EOS 0.253 0.339
Conventional radiograph (CR) 1.662 1.862
CT-scan 15.6
Low-dose CT-scan 5

Radiation exposure (in mGy) of EOS was compared to the most common imaging techniques in spinal examination in case of scoliosis [17].
