To identify the body composition determinants of an elevated dose length product during abdominopelvic CT.
Patients in the fourth quartile of dose length product (DLP > 620 mGy.cm) had a mean total adipose volume greater than three times more than patients who were in the first quartile of dose length product (DLP < 358 mGy.cm).
In comparison, patients in the fourth quartile of dose length product had a mean muscle volume that was approximately 1.5 times more than patients who were in the first quartile of dose length product.
Interestingly, muscle volume did not significantly predict dose length product values in younger female or younger male patients (p = 0.180 and p = 0.065 respectively) but was predictive of dose length product in older female and older male patients (Table 3).
ED was calculated using conversion factors applied to the radiotracer activity and to the CT dose-length product.
Hence, some authors may have chosen to avoid the calculation of effective doses in favour of reporting measurable variables as the dose-length product orCT dose index.

Significant dose reduction was achieved while maintaining an acceptable diagnostic quality (80 KV, 40 effective mAs, dose-length product 37 mGy*cm).
Dose parameters such as (achieved) average effective mAs, volume CT dose index (CTDIvol), and dose-length product (DLP) were recorded for each scan phase from the dose report.
