Résumé
Size-specific dose estimates (SSDE) are the latest topic of interest in patient radiation-dose studies in computed tomography (CT). The aim of this study is to calculate and evaluate the doses (SSDE) by measuring the effective diameter (ED) of cross-sectional images collected during CT examinations of the chest and abdomen in Moroccan hospitals. Doses (SSDE) were calculated based on cross-sectional images by measuring the effective diameters of 75 patients in both examinations (45 for the thorax and 30 for the abdomen). Specific conversion factors for (ED) were used to convert the registered CTDI
