Recently, Yamashita et al. reported direct measurements of ionizing radiationdoses to individual organs in postmortem (using OSL dosimetry) that wereexposed in the most frequent clinical CT scan protocols, corresponding to thewhole body, head, thorax and abdomen. The authors compare the experimentalresults with the values calculated in the Waza-AriV2 software, which is asystem based on the MonteCarlo method that performs the estimation of organdoses from the exposure parameters used in the CT equipment. However, theresults of the absorbed doses calculated in each examination had significantvariations with respect to the doses measured directly in postmortem. In thiscommunication, we made a calculation under the correct interpretation in one ofthe acquisition parameters (mA) which leads to a significant discrepancybetween the estimated and measured values reported by Yamashita et al. We alsomake the comparison between the Waza-AriV2 and NCICT software.
