The purpose of this study was to find the best protocol for balance of image quality and dose in brain CT scan. Images were acquired using dual-source CT and AAPM water phantom, noise and dose were measured, and effective dose was calculated using computer simulation program ALARA(S/W). In order to determine the ratio of image quality and dose by each protocol, FOM (figure of merits) equation with normalized DLP was presented and the result was calculated. judged that the ratio of image quality and dose was excellent when the FOM maximized. Experimental results showed that protocol No. 21(120 kVp, 10 mm, 1.5 pitch) was the best, the organ with the highest effective dose was the brain(33.61 mGy). Among organs with high radiosensitivity, the thyroid gland was 0.78 mGy and breast 0.05 mGy. In conclusion, the optimal parameters and the organ dose in the protocol were also presented from the experiment, It may be helpful to clinicians who want to know the protocol about the optimum state of image quality and dose.
