Implication

Retrospective analysis assessed cumulative effective dose from CT scans in hospitalized patients, indicating a need for improved patient safety protocols.

Key Points

The average cumulative effective dose from CT scans was approximately 40 mSv in hospitalized patients.
1.6% of patients received over 100 mSv of radiation in a year, highlighting significant exposure risks.
Retrospective study conducted with data from 60 hospitalized patients in a Moroccan radiology center.
The findings call for better justification and optimization of radiological examinations to ensure safer practices.
