Computerized Tomography is a method of working with X-rays and is increasing in application day by day. Scientists continue to conduct studies by reducing the dose of X-ray that patients are exposed to in order to reduce the cancer risk. The aim is to get the most effective image by the most minimal dose. In this review, the importance of CT radiation dose reduction and the methods in adults are presented.
