Local Diagnostic Reference Levels for X-Ray Examinations in an Australian Tertiary Hospital

Introduction: The use of diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) has been recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) since 1996. However, the national DRLs normally focus on the most common radiological examinations. The purpose of this study was to conduct a patient do...
