Abstract
Research on effective dose analysis of actual conditions of use based on large data is scarce. In this study, the exposure conditions of Chest X-Ray examinations used by 324 medical institutions in Korea were calculated and evaluated using computer simulations. As a result of the experiment, the effective dose in the low energy parameter bands was 0.024 mSv, followed by spleen, adrenal glands, and lung. The effective dose in the high-energy exposure parameter band was 0.123 mSv, followed by height, spleen and adrenal glands. The effective dose was 0.017 mSv when the optimal conditions considered the quality and exposure proposed in Park's study were used. The results of the study will be a reference for chest X-rays and will help reduce patient exposure.
