Radiation dosimetry

a patient dose estimate for CT that corrects the scanner's CT dose index with conversion factors based on the patient's effective body diameter.

In radiation dosimetry, size-specific dose estimate refers to a patient dose estimate for CT that corrects the scanner's CT dose index with conversion factors based on the patient's effective body diameter. This meaning comes from Boone (2011) in Size-Specific Dose Estimates (SSDE) in Pediatric and Adult Body CT Examinations.[1]
