CALHN Research Pulse podcast | Season 2 Episode 8 | In this episode, we discuss the Adelaide Facial Bone Rule, a screening tool to reduce exposure to CT facial scans, which frequently accompanies a CT brain scan for patients admitted following a fall or accident. We speak to Sarah Constantine, a consultant radiologist at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, who led the first large study investigating the possibility of using information from the CT brain scan to predict the need for a CT facial bone scan to reduce the radiation dose to individual patients.Sarah is also a perinatal and craniofacial radiologist at The Women’s and Children’s Hospital, is a forensic Radiologist, clinical Senior Lecturer, at the University of Adelaide’s Dental School and was a member of the SA Radiation Protection Committee between 2007 and 2022.If you would like to get in touch, you can email us at [email protected]
