Reducing Planning CT Dose Lowers Dose of CT Fluoroscopy for Spine Injections
The radiation dose for a CT fluoroscopy is approximately half that for traditional fluoroscopy to guide epidural steroid injections; however, the dose is substantially more than conventional fluoroscopy when a full lumbar planning CT scan is performed as part of the CT-guided procedure, a new study revealed.
