Abstract
Low-dose imaging techniques are transforming diagnostic radiology by minimizing ionizing radiation exposure while preserving image quality. Advancements in detector technology, reconstruction algorithms, and artificial intelligence are driving this evolution, particularly benefiting pediatric imaging and patients needing frequent scans. Technologies like deep learning reconstruction, iterative reconstruction, and photon-counting detectors enhance image quality and enable significant dose reduction. Specialized low-dose protocols for pediatric imaging and CT angiography are also being developed. Clinical validation ensures diagnostic accuracy is maintained at reduced radiation levels.
