Abstract/OtherAbstract:
It has been 10 years since the original pediatric CT ALARA conference in 2001, so it is fitting that we look back at our progress. The following material will look at how we might quantify our performance regarding the justification and optimization of radiation protection. It will also summarize some of the efforts and initiatives that have likely contributed to these changes.
