  2. EBT Clinical Applications CARDIAC IMAGING • Coronary Artery Calcium Scanning • Coronary Electron Beam Angiography (EBA) • Functional Cardiac Imaging BODY IMAGING • Pulmonary Embolism • Low-Dose Lung Scanning • Abdominal Scanning • Colonography • Peripheral EBA (Carotid, Aorta, Renal, Femoral) • Head Scan

  3. EBT Coronary calcium scan 50 to 63 mrem 0.5 to 0.63 mSv EBT Coronary EBA scan 70 to 90 mrem 0.7 to 0.9 mSv EBT Low-dose Lung scan 100 to 150 mrem 1.0 to 1.5 mSv Background radiation in 1year 300 mrem 3.0 mSv Cross country airplane trip 2 mrem 0.02 mSv Chest X-ray 8 to 10 mrem 0.08 to 0.1 mSv Abdominal X-ray 48 mrem 4.8 mSv Lumbar Spine X-ray series 300 mrem 3.o mSv Coronary Angiogram 500 to 600 mrem 5.0 to 6.0 mSv Lower G.I. X-ray series 600 mrem 6.0 mSv EBT Radiation Dose Radiation dose from EBT scans compared to other sources of radiation Radiation Source Millirems Millisieverts The advantage of the EBT over conventional scanners is that, instead of exposing the entire circumference of the body to the X-ray beam, the EBT X-ray beam enters from the back. Thus, anterior structures such as the breast and thyroid are subjected to a lesser dose of radiation (17% of the entrance skin dose).
