    Abstract

    Introduction: Computed tomography (CT) is a crucial tool in modern medical diagnostics, providing detailed cross-sectional images for diagnosis and treatment planning. However, concerns regarding radiation exposure in CT imaging, particularly in vulnerable populations, have raised questions about its safety. Body Mass Index (BMI) has been identified as a factor influencing radiation dose in CT scans, with higher BMI potentially leading to increased radiation exposure. Understanding this relationship is essential for optimizing CT protocols to minimize radiation-related risks while maintaining diagnostic accuracy.
