Hybrid Modality Fusion of Planar Scintigrams and CT Topograms to Localize Sentinel Lymph Nodes in Breast Lymphoscintigraphy: Technical Description and Phantom Studies
Table 1
Measured exposure and calculated CT topogram dose versus kV and mA. For topogram acquisitions, three conversion factors (Rontgen-to-mGy, backscatter factor, and skin dose-to-effective dose) are used to estimate the effective dose for several techniques of topogram acquisition.
