Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The first aim of the study is to see whether abnormalities are generally seen equally well (non-inferiority) on the low dose abdominal CT scan compared to the normal abdominal CT scan.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The second aim of the study is to compare whether an internal herniation is seen equally well (non-inferiority) on the abdominal low dose CT scan compared to the normal abdominal CT scan. An additional endpoint will be the comparison in quality between the normal dose CT scan and the low dose CT scan.
