No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to validate the use of a low-dose computed tomography (CT) protocol and facilitate reduced radiation doses in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This is to be achieved using new computer software (Iterative Reconstruction and Automatic Tube Modulation) which will enable low-dose CT imaging at doses equivalent to that of an abdominal radiograph.
