Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation exposure from CT scans in childhood and subsequent risk of leukaemia and brain tumours: a retrospective cohort study
Mark S. Pearce,J Salotti,Mark P. Little,Kieran McHugh,Choonsik Lee,Kwang Pyo Kim,Nicola Howe,Cécile M. Ronckers,Preetha Rajaraman,Alan W. Craft,Louise Parker,Amy Berrington de Gonzalez +11 more
TL;DR: Use of CT scans in children to deliver cumulative doses of about 50 mGy might almost triple the risk of leukaemia and doses ofabout 60 m Gy might triple therisk of brain cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between paediatric CT scans and subsequent risk of leukaemia and brain tumours: assessment of the impact of underlying conditions
Amy Berrington de Gonzalez,J Salotti,Kieran McHugh,Mark P. Little,Richard W Harbron,Choonsik Lee,Estelle Ntowe,Melissa Z. Braganza,Louise Parker,Preetha Rajaraman,Charles A. Stiller,Douglas R Stewart,Alan W. Craft,Mark S. Pearce +13 more
TL;DR: Re-analysis of the cohort with additional clinical data showed an increased cancer risk after low-dose radiation exposure from CT scans in young patients, although there was evidence of some bias in the original risk estimates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence and clinical features of langerhans cell histiocytosis in the UK and Ireland
TL;DR: This is the first study of LCH to use an active surveillance method with additional sources of ascertainment, and its incidence is comparable with those in other national reports, although it is likely to be an underestimate as each method may have missed some cases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a database of organ doses for paediatric and young adult CT scans in the United Kingdom.
Kwang Pyo Kim,A. Berrington de Gonzalez,Mark S. Pearce,J Salotti,Louise Parker,Kieran McHugh,Alan W. Craft,Clifton C. Lee +7 more
TL;DR: The methods used to estimate typical organ-specific doses delivered by CT scans to children are described and an organ dose database from Monte Carlo radiation transport-based computer simulations using a series of computational human phantoms from newborn to adults for both male and female was established, which is the first detailed paediatric CT scan database for the UK.
Journal ArticleDOI
EPI-CT: design, challenges and epidemiological methods of an international study on cancer risk after paediatric and young adult CT

TL;DR: By focusing on the issues which challenge the validity of risk estimates from CT exposures, EPI-CT will be able to address limitations of previous CT studies, thus providing reliable estimates of risk of solid tumours and leukaemia from children's CT exposures and scientific bases for the optimisation of paediatric CT protocols and patient protection.
