Among the plethora of imaging modalities currently available, these recent imaging systems tend to draw attention from the clinicians. But still there is a lack of evidence-based data on the radiation dose and patient selection criteria for these imaging modalities, which calls for a set of guidelines to be introduced for their use in clinical practice in the future.
