The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) Report 204 (2011) bases SSDE values on the CT dose index (volume) reported on CT scanners but future modifications may include SSDE correction factors based on attenuation data of the patient acquired during the projection scan(s) of the scanned patient.<br /> <br /> ([[ICRP Publication 135]], 2017)<br /> <br /> '''Return to [[ICRP Glossary|Glossary]]'''</div>
