Dose tracking and radiology department management.

The purpose of this work was to review the reasonable measures that should be implemented as part of a routine practice in the process of managing CT radiation risks in a typical average radiology department. Based on 6 y of experience in the management of a general radiology department and the newly implemented supportive software for dose tracking, analysing and reporting, the approach towards radiation risk reduction is presented. Thanks to this approach, some problems have been resolved, and reasonable measures have been introduced into daily practice.
