The CT & Dose Taskforce aims:
- to create evidence base for justification and optimisation in the use of computed tomography in children and young adults
- to provide a dynamic platform for communication and discussion
- to provide an opportunity continuous education using quality assurance criteria
- to develop evidence based guidelines for good clinical practice within paediatric CT
