Abstract

Computed Tomography (CT) is a crucial diagnostic imaging modality which exposes patients to high amounts of ionising radiation. However, knowledge and awareness of radiation protection and diagnostic reference level (DRLs) among radiographers remain inconsistent. This study determines the knowledge and awareness of radiation protection and DRLs among CT radiographers in government hospitals at Western Coast Region of Sabah
