Fig. 4 —Tube current routinely used for pediatric chest MDCT.
Compared with 2001, there has been a trend to use less tube current in
children ranging in age from 0 to 4 years. No respondents from current survey
selected tube current value of 150 mA or more. Mean tube current between 2001
[8] and 2006 was significantly
lower (p < 0.0001), as they were for abdominal MDCT in children
5–8 and 9–12 years old.
