Abstract: Background: CT examinations are commonly utilized for the diagnosis of internal diseases. The X-rays emitted during CT scans can elevate the risks of developing solid cancers by causing DNA damage. The risk of CT scan-induced solid cancers is intricately linked to the organ doses specific to each patient. The Support Vector Regression (SVR) algorit... Show More
