2. How to manipulate the does in order to improve image quality in CT scans
3. What are the crucial factor for obtaining better quality image for thorax-abdomen in CT scans
4. Evaluate the image quality of the low- dose thorax- abdomen CT scans
5. To assess the clinical outcome in patients with thoracic-abdominal problems
Type of Review (e.g. evaluating the effectiveness of an intervention – Quantitative studies OR synthesis of qualitative
findings to phenomenon Qualitative studies).
Systematic review
Proposed Quality Assessment Tool:
Appraisal tools for systematic review such as quality assessment tool for quantitative studies
Proposed Data Extraction Instrument:
Critical appraisal using a predefined criterion will be conducted on individual articles. Conflicting data from the studies
will be adjudicated by consensus. Data will be extracted using special designed data sheet with the help of Microsoft excel,
the information to be entered in this datasheet include: type of the studies, aim of the studies, outcomes of the studies,
information about participants and interventions,… etc.
