Abstract
To estimate risks involved in x-ray diagnosis, it is useful to employ the concepts of organ dose and integral dose, whereas the surface dose should be considered as unsuitable. Although the methods of measurement differ from each other, they can lead to comparable results, as is demonstrated in this article, eg, for computerised tomography of the skull.
