Variability of radiation dose in low-dose CT lung cancer screening: A real-world multi-centre protocol comparison

Puntos clave

• Lung cancer screening shows significant variability in radiation dose across different protocols.
• The analysis highlighted that doses ranged widely, with some centers reporting a 50% difference in exposure.
• Observational analysis across multiple centers reviewed real-world data to assess protocol differences regarding radiation exposure.
• This variability may impact screening effectiveness and patient safety, suggesting the need for unified guidelines.
