Abdominal imaging dose in radiology and radiotherapy – Phantom point dose measurements, effective dose and secondary cancer risk

•Imaging dose in radiology and radiotherapy are measured and compared.•Secondary cancer risk is estimated for different 3D imaging techniques.•Modern radiology techniques offer the potential of greatly decreasing imaging dose.•It might be possible to reduce IGRT dose further by adopting similar stra...
