A new animal model for testing renal tolerance of contrast agents.

abstract：:Radiation dose in computed tomography (CT) has become a hot topic due to an upward trend in the number of CT procedures worldwide and the relatively high doses associated with these procedures. The main aim of this review article is to provide an overview of the most frequently used metrics for CT radiation dose chara...
