Background: ) during these procedures. The rapid radiation dose was also estimated based on the AAPM report 293. Methods: were calculated according to the AAPM report 293. The analyses were performed using linear regression. Results: and increased HC in both age groups (r=-0.92 and -0.82, respectively; both P values ≤0.001). Conclusions: The HC of patients was associated with head conversion. HC is a feasible indicator for rapidly estimating the radiation dose in head CT examinations based on the AAPM report 293.
