Abstract
- The effective doses and radiation risks of X-ray and CT examinations for children during the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 were assessed and the dependence of the number of examinations and the total radiation risk for one patient on the severity of the disease was analyzed. Sufficient grounds to assert if the severity of the course of the disease is associated with radiation risks from the performed CT examinations have not been received. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
